Live show by Belgian band Mint with Primitive (ex Avalanche Party) at The New Adelphi Club.
Mint play The New Adelphi Club on Sunday 27 December, with Primitive (formerly Avalanche Party) supporting. It's a late December date, so it'll be one of the last gigs in town before the New Year.
Mint are a Belgian band founded in 1999 by Erwin Marcisz, Phil Marcisz, Steve Janssens and Kim Windmolders, with drummer Tim Claes joining in 2000. They describe their own style as being marked by simplicity and attention to melody, and that's a good place to start if you're wondering what they sound like. They've spent their early years playing the big talent contests in their region, including the finals of Limbomania and Humo's rockrally, Belgium's biggest rock talent contest.
Their debut album, Echoes from the engine room, came out in 2004 and was recorded with producer Peter Crosbie; they signed to GreenLFant records. Their follow-up, Magnetism, arrived in 2006 and was recorded with producer John Morand, who's also worked with Sparklehorse and Cracker. If you're not familiar with them, those two records give you a fair idea of where they've come from.
