By the Hedge by Minks

Ooh, nice embossing! Minks do a sort of raincoat-clad indie goth-pop and I think they do it pretty well. They've got chimey guitars and melodic basslines and downtrodden vocals and everything. They make me feel nostalgic in a really vague sort of way which I think is probably the idea. I bet they watch Donnie Darko when they practice and shit. I don't mean like they take a portable DVD player into the toilet with them or anything because that'd be demented and possibly libelous. I was using the word 'shit' instead of the word 'stuff' because it makes me look all devil-may-care, like. I'm 'letting it all hang out' for you 'cool dudes'.

With the release of "By The Hedge," MINKS further the ability to make you feel eternal autumn. Frontman and songwriter Sean Kilfoyle's ability to capture the raincoat grey Boston mornings of his youth, have the desire to make you feel like you are listening to a dream while awake and standing in the pouring rain. put on your raincoat and enjoy the splendor."
