Pilot to Gunner and Her Head’s On Fire (members of Garrison, Gay For Johnny Depp, Small Brown Bike, Saves The Day), will release a split 7″ on Mind Over Matter Records on September 30.
Pre-order the record at Mind Over Matter Records, or at Deathwish Inc.
Pilot to Gunner’s track is “Gone For Real,” a previously unreleased song from the sessions for their new album Hail Hallucinator, which came out in August via Arctic Rodeo.
“This was definitely the scrappiest, most late-90’s-ish, early-days-PTG little blaster to come out of the Hail Hallucinator session, so we thought it’d be perfect to throw on a 7″ with some old friends on the other side!,” Scott Padden of Pilot to Gunner says.
HHOF — who put out their debut LP College Rock & Clove Cigarettes in July via Iodine Recordings and Friend Club Records — contribute a spirited cover of the early Goo Goo Dolls classic “Just The Way You Are.”
Her Head’s On Fire vocalist Joseph Grillo adds, “Scott and I have been friends for ages and we both call each other often and discuss the projects we are working on, talk shit, talk art and co-conspire. The idea of a split 7” between these two bands came together after Pilot to Gunner graciously let us support them for our first show as Her Head’s in Fire.” About covering the Goo Goo Dolls, he adds, “The Goo Goo Dolls’ songwriting excellence has been apparent since their genesis in the ’80s and we wanted to pay homage to them and update one of their early tunes as our contribution to this split 7”.”
The 7″ artwork (above) was created by Jeff Caudill of Gameface.
