It’s ‘Been A While’ but MINI SKIRTs make a welcome return

AUSSIE pub-punks MINI SKIRT follow up last month’s ‘Pottsville River’ single with new song ‘Been A While,’ and further announce November 14 as release date for new album, ‘All That We Know,’ (via Bad Vibrations).

“This track was written probably four or so years ago in our first proper writing session for the album,” explained frontman Jacob Boylan. “We’d hired a hall out in the hills behind where we live and stayed there for a couple of nights in sleeping bags on the floor.

“I’d just got back from a visit to where I grew up for a funeral and was rattled by the mindset of the mates I’d grown up with that were at the funeral. It’s a bit of a heavy one. I loved the tempo of what the lads put together and fit my headspace like a glove.”

Five years since the release of debut long-player ‘Casino,’ Mini Skirt’s second album, ‘All That We Know’ continues to deliver their brand of raw political grinding garage, underpinned by lyricist and visual artist Boylan painting a picture of the modern social climate, and of hope through struggle.

‘All That We Know’ was mixed and mastered by Mikey Young (Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Total Control) and will be self-released in Australia, and via London-based label and gig promoters Bad Vibrations in the rest of the world.

Joining Boylan in the band are Jesse Pumphrey (bass), Jacob Pumphrey (drums), and Cam Campbell (guitar).
