Single Review: Mint Julep – Days Gone By
Before slotting their CD into my deck I’d not heard Mint Julep before. The name kinda lends itself to drippy instantly forgettable summery pop, so when I pressed play I it’s fair to say I wasn’t expecting much. I certainly wasn’t expecting my ears to be met by lo-fi distorted drums and crunching guitars. Before I had chance to recover from the shock, the assault continued as guitars alternating between shimmering and distorting, punchy keyboards and dreamy reverb laden girl vocals all kicked in a stunning orgy of melody that has left me literally desperate for more. Nurse!
