Marking over a decade of their celebrated post-punk sound, Manchester four-piece PINS return today with energetic new single ‘All Over’ and announce the release of their fourth album ‘If I’m Alive Now, Then I Was Dead’ released on 12th February via Haus of PINS.

PINS – friends Faith Vern, Lois MacDonald, Kyoko Swan and Abbi Phillips – released their album ‘Girls Like Us’ in 2013, followed by the acclaimed ‘Wild Nights’ in 2015, which marked its 10-year anniversary last year, their Bad Thing EP (featuring Iggy Pop) in 2017, and ‘Hot Slick’ in 2020. In February, they return with their fourth record ‘If I’m Alive Now, Then I Was Dead’, which marks a profound rebirth for the band, signalling a fresh new chapter in their sound.

Introducing the album is new single ‘All Over’, which was recorded at Stockport’s Resonance Studios and engineered and mixed by Joel Patchett (King Krule, Let’s Eat Grandma), with the band leaning into a more organic and real approach to the recording process. Opening with poised yet disconcerting guitars, backed by fierce, smoky vocals that build into a chant-like anthemic chorus, the song references PINS early musical influences from the 60s girl-group sound of The Ronettes to the gritty punk of The Stooges.

PINS toured live earlier this year, and last year saw them commemorate 10-years of their beloved album ‘Wild Nights’ with a series of special anniversary shows. With a well-earned reputation for their dynamic and electric live show, they will be announcing further tour dates soon.
