MINTZKOV – BIO
Mintzkov Luna will henceforth be known as Mintzkov. With ‘360°’, their second album, Mintzkov is aiming for the big prize. The first single, ‘One Equals a Lot’, stands for the new and reborn Mintzkov. Straightforward, powerful and adventurous. Their debut album ‘M for Means and L for Love’ already contained a number of hitsingles such as ‘Mimosa’, ‘United Something’ and ‘I Do’. While ‘M for Means and L for Love’ was a wonderful listening experience, filled with subdued tension, ‘360°’ has Mintzkov crackling like never before. You need references? Try thinking Girls against Boys meets Pixies.
‘360°’ was produced by Mark Freegard, a Scottish lad who has previously worked with The Breeders, Manic Street Preachers and The Cranes.
With ‘360°’ Mintzkov is searching for the basis. Making a second album forces a band to think about their position and reconsider that position. Making good songs is one thing but making brilliant songs that make a difference is a whole other thing. On ‘360°’, Mintzkov has succeeded in the latter. Making a circle: that about sums up Mintzkov’s working process for ‘360°’. Taking different paths and enjoying what their distractions have to offer without losing track of the ultimate goal: coming back home and finding what you’ve been searching for.
360° will be released in Germany, Austria and Switzerland on 28 March 2008.
The album will also be available as legal download at Itunes.
