Pennines - Discography

Fixed download links. They should now all work and not just link to the same file.


Pennines were a band from Norwich, England. As per there Last.fm page:

4 piece band (cheaper band practices) from Norwich, England. Heavily influenced by late 70’s proto-funk, dub-reggae and power violence.

Long gone. Splashed to the four winds. The way of the Dodo. 
Not much is available information wise as to who was in the band and the rolls they played. Below is everything that is available via the internet at this time. There will not be links to buy anything as there is no way to buy anything by the band, they even direct fans on their Facebook page to go to Last.fm were a member has posted links to their discography. (I have more included here than that member has posted.)

Henry Tremain - Vocalist/Guitar
Mikey Ramone - Bass?

Polinski - Labrynths Japanese Bonus Tracks

Polinski is the name of Paul Wolinski's solo project. Paul is mostly known for his role in 65daysofstatic as the second guitarist and keyboardist. He has a bunch of songs written that just didn't fit the 65dos sound so he decided to release them upon the world on his own. Much like the band he's in, his solo project is hard to describe in terms of sound. It's electronic, it's fresh yet retro, and above all else it's dance-able.

These are the two bonus tracks from the Japanese re-release of the album on Zankyo Records. A side note I have these tracks as 10 & 11 (despite the album only having seven tracks) because I already have two bonus tracks from pre-ordering the album when it came out.

10. Cave-Eyed & Kiss-Lipped
11. True North

Download
Buy on Amazon.co.jp or White Noise Records (Both sites offer international shipping, though Amazon is a little rougher to navigate!)
