Pointed Sticks were a Canadian punk rock/power pop band from Vancouver, first active from 1978 to 1981, and reunited to perform in 2006 and 2007.
They were the first Canadian band signed to Stiff Records, although the label was going through financial problems and never released an album by the band.[3] The band consisted of vocalist Nick Jones, guitarist Bill Napier-Hemy, later keyboardist Gord Nicholl (from Active Dog), bassist Tony Bardach and drummer Ian Tiles. Johnny Ferreira later joined on saxophone, Bardach was replaced by Scott Watson on bass, and Tiles was replaced by drummer Robert Bruce (from Active Dog), and later by Ken "Dimwit" Montgomery. The band released four singles before releasing their only full-length album, Perfect Youth in 1980."

Canada's finest. Featured a short stint with Chuck Biscuits on drums (D.O.A, Social Distortion among others) They played the power pop festival. Check out The Diodes, and The Mods for classic Canadian stuff like this.
