Mini Skirt Share “Been A While” from Upcoming “All That We Know” Album

Five long years since their debut album, Casino, snuck into the ears of Punk enthusiasts around the world, Mini Skirt’s second full length, All That We Know, is now ready to hurl at the world via Bad Vibrations. The Australian Pub-Punkers continue to deliver their brand of jagged, raw political Aussie grit, delving deeper and leaning harder into their signature blend of Australian Punk, All That We Know solidifies Mini Skirt’s position at the forefront of a socially inspired noisescape. Following the release of their Pottsville River single last month, Mini Skirt are ready to lob another molten musical grenade at an unsuspecting music world with Been A While, a hypnotic, grinding garage disturbance that in just over two minutes, manages to sound like The Fall colliding headlong with Eddy Current Suppression Ring. 

“This track was written probably four or so years ago in our first proper writing session for the album, 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.” (frontman Jacob Boylan)
