An uninhibited punk and post-hardcore band from Auckland, New Zealand, the Mint Chicks -- Michael Logie (bass), <a href="spotify:artist:2OOOSMQcWqKu4RpV9rckuQ">Kody Nielson</a> (vocals, piano), Ruban Nielson (guitar), and Paul Roper (drums) -- formed in 2001 and signed to the Flying Nun label a couple years later, debuting with the six-song Octagon, Octagon, Octagon EP. A second EP for the label, Anti-Tiger, followed eight months later, but not before a one-off single for Fierce Panda. In a matter of months, the band went from headlining its own small shows in its homeland to playing abroad and opening for the likes of <a href="spotify:artist:3HJIB8sYPyxrFGuwvKXSLR">TV on the Radio</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4F84IBURUo98rz4r61KF70">the White Stripes</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:3TNt4aUIxgfy9aoaft5Jj2">the Yeah Yeah Yeahs</a>. They recorded their first album, F**k the Golden Youth, after a spate of tours in 2005 and followed it with the more melodically developed Crazy? Yes! Dumb? No! in 2006. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi
