The Mint Chicks (Official Thread)

[kearn1tm]

This band's called a lot of things; shitgaze, noise rock, power pop, whatever. I just call them a rad Punk band from New Zealand. They put on one hell of a live show and they're fun as hell.

Yay.

[kearn1tm]

Yes!

[xJesusFreakx]

They're touring with All Time Low next month...

...anybody? No? Did it work?

Am I doing it right?

Sounds really fun.

First song is trippy.

[kearn1tm]

I can always count on Tim. Good man. Keep your head up, kid. You'll make President with that gumption.

[xJesusFreakx]

Ew, I don't want to be President. I'm too chill and low profile for something like that.

[kearn1tm]

Ew, I don't want to be President. I'm too chill and low profile for something like that.

With an attitude like that, I don't even want you as president anymore!

The Mint Chicks are rad though, people. Get on it.

yeah... the time they supported the blood brothers in 2005 was an awesome gig.

the singer used to come over to my house on occasion as my flatmates were high school friends of theirs. quite a shy/reserved fellow considering...

Okay, seeing them with The Blood Brothers would be killer. I've seen them separately, but never together.

That's rad. I'd never be able to tell, considering how kinetic he is on-stage.

[kearn1tm]

You people will respond!

[IntoTheSun]

Sweet band.

Todd will like me now.

Maybe.

Sweet band.

I remember listening to 'crazy? yes. dumb? no!' all the time years ago, never listened to any other songs by them though.

[IntoTheSun]

Hahaha, second song is fantastic. Especially at 2:20

That's their best album, by my estimation.

[El_Jeffe]

The first time I heard them was live, when they played a short set opening for... don't even remember. But as anyone who has seen them live knows... massive energy. Since then I've never been able to really get into their recorded material, just nowhere near the same. Not really sure what I make of them, it was some time ago.

[EchoPark]

This band is ridiculously awful, possibly the worst live band I've ever seen. I am really surprised they are still around.
