Dinosaur Pile Up are Matt Bigland (vox/guitar), Harry Johns (vox/guitar) and Mike Shiels (drums), between the three of them they create a brilliant thrashy noise and they are about to release their debut single and album on an unsuspecting public.
The single Mona Lisa is released on September 27th, followed by the highly anticipated album Growing Pains a week later.
Mona Lisa will be available as a 7″ or digitally and will be backed by B side Headspinner in either format, through indie label Friend Vs Records.
The single is about having no money, no time and living on instant noodles with no heating, explains singer Matt Brigland who goes on to say that sitting in his room surrounded by crap made him think that ‘This is kind of like trying to paint my own Mona Lisa.’
