About The Pine
Bunch of scroungy kids from Bakersfield, CA that play some truly righteous emotional music in the vein of The Hated, Evergreen, and some other bands that shared those same characteristics. All of their albums have been released on very plain Jane black vinyl outside of Don't Need Regret and split 7" with La Quiete, the last of their albums. Roger King, Kurt King, and Bill McCreary went on to form Reaching Away in 2009 with Nick Castro. Steven Koontz went on to play in Loser Life, Human Mess, and a handful of other bands.
