Mintzkov – Sky Hits Ground CD
Mintzkov from Lier has a new album out. ‘Sky Hits Ground’ is 100% DIY, from production to album cover. According to a message that the group sent out into the world, it is an album to turn inside out, that radiates with the desire to play, drips with schmerz and grabs the attention in a stranglehold.
“A Mintzkov album is always a closed diary of the last years. A difficult period was consumed in music: the pain of leaving behind transforms into a primal force that makes this record a pick-me-up. ‘Sky Hits Ground’ breathes renewed self-confidence, the will to continue, completely on its own two feet. An honest piece of work to be proud of, that does not give in an inch to commercial laziness but screams out what it is really about: playing from the gut. They decided to do everything themselves, without a producer and went from rehearsal room to studio and back. The Mintzkovs hatched their new songs in quarantine”.
