I remember these girls from some club gigs in Stockholm and in Finland. Great fun and a great trashy sound and beat! But I'm pretty sure the drummer was a guy in drag since Finnish girl drummers during the 80's were really scarce.
PIM's last drummer was indeed a guy (ex- Musta Paraati etc) so that's who you saw in Sthlm. But the original drummer seen in this video - and playing on their two first and best singles - is a girl called Marianne (ex-Geisha).
As to what became of them, Vilma the guitarist concentrated on music journalism and Ninni the singer made a career in advertising I think. She also formed a new band called The Bodyguards with her boyfriend Raine Salo, but only released one 12" in '88
Kävin vilkaisemassa Timanttikoirien vuosi -leffan, joka kertoi -80-luvun mustahuulien uljaasta aikakaudesta Helsingissä. Pätkässä vilahti Pin Upsien ohella myös silloinen PIM. Jäi aikanaan ihan turhan vähälle huomiolle.
Realmente no recuerdo esta banda, los videos no los llegué a ver, aunque por el estilo y sonido puedo asegurar que esta banda influenció a la banda L7, muy sonada en los tempranos 90, muy al estilo de Hole

(s)he certainly looks like a drag queen, but I've got no problems with that. I just stumbled upon the band PIM today - and I'm already in love!

Muitan nähneeni tämän aikoinaan tv:stä ja rakastuneeni välittömästi! Todella kovaa stuffia! Saisipa vielä Lies-biisin jostan käsiinsä.
