So as I started writing this blurb for Mini Mansions’ (a band I had heard of in passing but not really digged into yet) track for “Monk”, I was thinking… “UK band Mini Mansions sound like Supergrass” (or something like that.) So I go to look up what town English town these Mansions blokes are from and lo and behold, suprise surprise, they’re actually from L.A. AND is fronted by Queens of the Stone Age bassist Michael Shuman. That’s a pretty nice pedigree. “Monk” is a great tune, somewhere between the dusty blues-inspired sounds of 60’s bands like The Zombies or The Hollies or the dusty blues-inspired sounds of 90’s-00’s bands like, yes, Supergrass.
