What their label says...
Out of print for many many months now both LPS have now been re-pressed. The Detroit Cobras manage a pretty rare feat with their debut LP by transcending classic R&B material by sticking not to the original sound or slavishly recreating arrangements and stylistic trappings of the genre, but by finding the essence of the rough-and-tumble spirit of the original streetwise tunes the Cobras tackle on Mink Rat. Finally back in print on vinyl! The Cobras have releases on Bloodshot and Rough Trade Records. The Detroit Cobras are possibly the most unique, and arguably the best cover band around. New record in the works for 2010.
