THE NEEDLES
Not to be missed live? Genuinely!
A reputation for acrobatic, live shows, which have on more than one occasion been known to hospitalise members of the band.
"Fantastic" - Rocksound
"A fuzzy magic gem" - Metro
"From the simplest of constituents, The Needles have created a monster" - NME
A band that would blow the mind of anyone who saw them, and leave anyone that hadn't wondering what the hell was going on. A band that scare the audience with pop songs about girls.
The Needles have built a following, sold-out 5 DIY EPs, had radio airplay, toured the UK (including festivals/In The City) and recorded sessions for Radio 1, BBC Scotland and more, while generally becoming great at what they do in the process!
In June 006 they released their first proper single Dianne (Indie Chart Top 20 and the video at NME.com) there's another to follow late Summer... world, get ready...

Re: THE NEEDLES
I saw these at The Barfly. They deserve to be massive.

Re: THE NEEDLES
The Needles are sort of tipping themselves for 007 the way things are picking up for them. If you catch them live, you'll understand why...
= = = =
Sharp fizzles of punk power pop. Like an overly-excited Weezer covering Buzz****s, being mischievously poked by Phil Spectorwith shockingly electric cattle prods ROCKSOUND
Fuzzy magic jem. -Metro
Get yourself to a Needles gig youll jive to ace tunes, have a laugh and fall over on the tube on the way home! DISORDER
A wonky new york dolls stomp which gives way to unfathomable oompah - Kerrang
Songs like dead or alive is every teenage cowboy fantasy in one pop gem flash of tambourine-dream brilliance -NME
The needles are not just the needles, theyre the FU....ING NEEDLES.The needles rule, ok? -Drowned in sound
Great, great band -Zane Lowe
Truly Impressive - THE FLY
The Needles deliver an excellent set that's strong on melody and startling, imaginative instrumentation. - Music Week
The Needles are what you have been searching for - Loud and Quiet
