Platinum Head

About Me

Platinum Head is a four-piece Bay Area-based rock band -- mostly Stoner Rock mixed with some glammy Arena Rock riffage, a dash of Punk and Roll, and some occasional Doom metal fuzz. KSCU, the Santa Clara radio station that kindly plays Platinum Head music, dubbed the band "Neo Grunge". Whatever the kids want to label it is cool with us, we just call it Rock and Roll.

Platinum Head is currently recording at Digidesign in Daly City and should be releasing our first full-length album by late-2008... or is it late 2009? Well, someday.

BAND TURNONS: running in the rain on the freeway during rush hour - with that special someone, dry t-shirt contests, puppies, kittens, puppies that eat kittens, Jack in the Box tacos.

BAND TURNOFFS: myspace pages that take 3 hours to load because there's way too much crap on them, communism, market turmoil.
