This is the new solo album of Doug Pinnick of King's X. Pineappleskunk is like the experience you can have when you go to the attic of a house. All sorts of things are stored, some real precious and beautiful and there's some junk. There's a huge variety of things and they bring back memories. Well, the same goes for this record. You can hear all sorts of sounds, styles, influences and things on it. The main part is the heavy melodic rock/metal Doug is familiar for. One of the weird things is a track with answering machine excerpts. The music on the disc is reminiscent of King's X mainly because Doug's singing is on it. It's what you might expect from him. This doesn't take away that there are some beautiful songs on this record. Really beautiful. There's also some junk. But I like looking around on the attic.
