Pinact is a high energy punk band From Glasgow comprising Corrie Gillies (guitar/vocals), John Arbuthnot (bass) and Chris McCrory (drums).
“Pinact was already a frantic on-stage force, before they added Jon Arbuthnot (bass) to bring out the razor-sharp melodies and unapologetically fuzzy guitars. The Part That No One Knows, a much-anticipated follow-up to 2015’s excellent debut, Stand Still and Rot, delivers on all fronts – the trio offers hooks by the dozen, artillery-style drumming and perfectly synchronised guitar interplay. A lot of bands are compared to the likes of Sonic Youth, Nirvana and Dinosaur Jr., but very few are capable of living up to the billing. Enter Pinact, whom has harnessed the spirit of Glasgow’s music scene incredibly. Despite being small in numbers, the two-piece combines experimental, turn-it-up-to-11 guitar sounds with outstanding melodic awareness. Produced by the brilliant MJ of Hookworms (Eagulls, Drenge, Joanna Gruesome), Stand Still and Rot perfectly distills the live sound of Pinact. It’s loud, it’s uncompromising, and yet it sounds pretty and considered”.
This was a limited edition release for Record Store Day 2016.
