Solid action is provided by Sharp Pins on their new album length collection of burgeoning beat delights, Balloon, Balloon, Balloon [PRNL062/KLP310], which becomes available at all the usual digital outlets this Friday, November 21. Sharp Pins are freaky but not freakbeat. They're winsome and blue but not the blues. Balloon, Balloon, Balloon [PRNL062/KLP310] is a raspberry smear across the face of modern pop, 2025. Everybody is now starting to play guitar again, teardrop or no, after hearing the raucous charm of Sharp Pins deluxe. They may or may not have a fuzzbox. Doesn't matter. These are the songs everyone meant to write.
The long playing (LP) phonograph record of Sharp Pins, Balloon, Balloon, Balloon [PRNL062/KLP310] is available NOW from The K Mail Order Dept.
