Pleasure Island

The debut album | Coming 2027

Pleasure Island

The poster boys for chaos and heartache, Grimsby hard rockers Mint, return with their long-awaited debut album, Pleasure Island — a love letter to their hometown and its once world-famous theme park.

After years of cutting their teeth on the UK touring circuit, earning airplay on BBC Radio 1, Radio X and Kerrang! Radio, and sharing stages with The Hunna, Avalanche Party and October Drift, the four-piece are back with a 10-track full-length album that captures the grit, energy and spirit of their northern roots.

Produced by Stew Baxter (LIFE), Pleasure Island captures the sound of four mates in a room making loud, honest rock ’n’ roll.

“They’re back with full force — whiplash left, right and centre.” — Jericho Keys, BBC Introducing.

“Energetic, exciting and huge” — Jack Saunders, Radio 1.

“Massive band” — Gordon Smart, Radio X.

“Grimsby has always been at the heart of everything we do. We grew up here, we started this band here, and no matter where we’ve played, it’s always been home. Pleasure Island is our love letter to the town, to the people who’ve backed us from day one, and to a place that holds so many memories for so many of us.”

“We wanted this record to sound exactly like Mint. No tricks, no overthinking, no polishing the life out of it. Stew completely understood that. It’s four mates in a room, amps turned up, feeding off each other’s energy. That’s how we’ve always played, and that’s how this album deserved to be made.”
