About Pointed Sticks

One of the key bands on the Canadian punk/new wave scene in the late '70s, the Pointed Sticks played sharp, uptempo pop music with guitars and drums that added real rock & roll muscle, and lyrics that offered a witty and cynical view of the world. Formed in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1977, the Pointed Sticks' live show made them a popular attraction on the West Coast underground music scene, and their clever, tuneful, and energetic songs earned them a deal with the fabled U.K. independent label Stiff Records, who released a single, "Out of Luck," in 1979. The band issued two well-received but nearly impossible-to-find LPs before breaking up in 1981 and re-forming in the late 2000s. ~ Mark Deming
