The Pineapples From The Dawn Of Time formed in 1985, out of the ashes of Brisbane's punk scene from the early part of the decade. A band was formed out of members from outre outfits such as Kicks, Riptides, The Ken Palmer Connection, Tex Deadly & The Dum Dums and The Kingswood Trio.
Often adorned in ridiculous costumes, the band played around Brisbane between 1985 and 1987 while gaining a cult following due to their onstage antics and songs about mass murderers, science fiction shows and drugs. In that time, the Pineapples released the double A side single 'Saha/Too Much Acid?' and an LP, 'Shocker' - both of which sold out shortly after their respective launches.
