PINS Announce New LP 'Hot Slick', Stream "Ponytail"

Manchester post punk, noir pop band PINS have announced the release of their third studio album 'Hot Slick'.

The follow-up to 2015’s Wild Nights will be out May 29 via their own Haus of Pins label, and features their recently released singles Hot Slickt (produced by Jamie Hince of The Kills), Bad Girls Forever (produced by Rich Woodcraft) as well as their new track "Ponytail". Pre-order your copy here.

According to the press release, the vibrant album is filled with neon synths, loud guitars, and cheeky melodies that mirror the group’s new boldly-hued imagery and create the sound of a girl gang refreshed and amplified.

Rich Woodcraft oversaw the entire project as producer and engineer, while Jamie Hince and Dean Horner contributed additional production and Nathan Saoudi of Fat White Family lent his talents on the keys. The resulting album highlights an expanded soundscape with nods to influences such as Soulwax, LCD Soundsystem, Suicide, and New Order.
