I'm telling pretty much anyone who will listen about it and seeing as this forum is part of one of the best artist page slash most normal people on a forum I've been involved with, I figure why not post about the album here!
well the band is called MINK. My bro is the singer and pretty much everyone else in the band is from Australia, all extremely talented at their respective instruments. They have a 21 yr old female drummer who plays hard and is awesome and wild in the live show. If you like old school rock (AC/DC, Stones) and wanna hear a modern band which is actually good (yeah, i'm bias), check them out.
If you have fifteen dollars to help support a band who made a CD you may very well really like - please pre-order or pick up a copy when it comes out - and be extra satisfied with the fact that you're supporting a band whose lead singer is a massive Frank Black fan! Neal and a van of ten or so of his friends once followed Frank on tour for three or four shows on his Dog in the Sand tour. Good times.
Pre-order / preview songs here: http://www.amazon.com/Mink/dp/B000UA...036074&sr=1-58
p.s. - if you're myspace savvy, check out their song "pressure pressure" - it was featured on intros for ESPN's Baseball Tonight last fall during playoffs http://www.myspace.com/mink |

They didn't grab me right away yet from listening to their myspace page, but they do sound really professional. That song Talk to Me: my son said "you always listen to Frank Black" when I just put it on again, and I had to tell him that's not Frank Black!
I'd rather be anywhere or doing anything |
