Label: Pure Noise Records
Released: 3rd June 2022
Starting delicately, ‘All Girls Go To Heaven’’s opening track ‘Against The Grain’ warns against the danger of playing it safe. Mint Green have no danger of failing to heed their own warning.
An album of challenge and awareness – both of self and others – it speaks loud and direct without ever needing to yell. ‘Body Language’, ‘What I’m Feeling’ and ‘Trying’ all hit the mark, but it’s five-minute centrepiece ‘Golden’ that really stuns. Atmospheric and emotional, it rings with grief for a broken relationship, processing those racing thoughts in real-time.
Real, relatable and shockingly good. ■ Dan Harrison
