Pins N' Needles

The second EP from King Gizzard is a collection of surf rock anthems that washed ashore one October day in 2011. Encased inside the egg of a sea monster, “Willoughby’s Beach,” showed King Gizzard fully delving into surf rock. It is no surprise that this early EP showed signs of a band of great talent. The reverberations of a distorted guitar are like waves against the cheered vocals. Drums ground the fastest of tracks in an all-or-nothing punchy rhythm that fills the listener with the need to jump, dance, and sing. This 9-track journey along the coast is brimming with the energy and vigor of a band who would come to be known as one of the greatest psychedelic rock bands of our time.
