Billie Joe Armstrong He was not the creator of Pinhead Gunpowderbut it is his most famous face. They are a band of friends that he has been a part of since 1991 and who are now back with a new single and album.
Active since 1991 and with several albums under their belt, Pinhead Gunpowder is a simple and direct punk rock band. No duplicity or ulterior motives. Fast, direct and fun punk pop. Maybe that is the reason why they continue to publish when they feel like it. In their ranks we find, in addition to Billie Joe Armstrongsinger and guitarist of Green Daywith Aaron Cometbus (founder, creator of the fanzine Cometbus and member of bands such as Crimpshrine), Bill Schneider (member of various local formations) and Jason White (Green Day’s touring guitarist and on other projects with them such as Foxboro Hot Tubs, The Network or The Coverups). Both Cometbus and Schneider also serve as tour managers for Green Day.
