Assembling in the late '90s in Aberdeen, Scotland, punk-flavored indie rock band the Needles are Dave Dixon (guitar, vocals), Paul Curtiss (bass, vocals), Richey Wolfe (keyboards, vocals), and Johnny Wolfe (drums, vocals). Loving Guns N' Roses and Nirvana while having little interest in Brit-pop, the bandmembers ultimately turned to early rock & roll for guidance. Following the release of two EPs in 2004 (Under the City and 1,2,3...5), their debut album, In Search of the Needles, came to fruition through Dangerous Records in November 2006.
