THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE
2010 - Pins And Needles.
way more Helter Skelter.

September 17, 2010 - 2025: 15 years of: Pins And Needles.

More morbid magic.

From London's dark alleys, this eerie Canadian nightmare haunts the scene. Fully awake and with a define sound, this fourth killing celebrates THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE's pristine synth-gothrock performance.

A fat tone with deadly consequences, strikes "In The Dark". Saved by Chibi's lovely chants, the hammering continues with the dream-like state of both "Always" and "Shallow Grave". The disco-filled upbeat of "Control" commands the darkwave dance-floors, while the electronica of "Midnight" shines under the moonlight. Ultra-crunch is fully present on the title-track for "Pins And Needles" ...a metalized communion.

From 2007's Walking With Strangers CD, to the current frolic into the dim lit cemetery and once again mixed by Dave Ogilvie ...THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE are in the zone.

A romantic rampage, one of the hottest hidden gems shall come back with more morbid magic, with 2012's Hide And Seek CD.
