Mint Mile is a rock group based in Chicago, Illinois, founded in 2014 by Tim Midyett of Silkworm and Bottomless Pit, with Jeff Panall of Songs: Ohia on drums. Matthew Barnhart (Tre Orsi) and Justin Brown (Palliard) are the two other constant members, having played bass guitar and pedal steel/guitar respectively for many years. andwhichstray, Mint Mile's sixth record, was predominantly engineered by Steve Albini at a recording seminar in the south of France a few days before his death..The album is about boiling down life to it's essentials. How little we differ from pets and barnyard animals. Appreciating yet lamenting the grind through bad times, grateful for any rise up out of them. True freedom vs priggish, piggish fundamentalism. The way the road forward looks when you're an adult as opposed to, say, your kid's age.The next-to-last song on the record ("Can't Be The First One") was written by Jason Molina for the surviving members of Silkworm, the day after Michael Dahlquist was killed in 2005. A cassette of this song went un-listened in a drawer for 15+ years. When Midyett finally pressed play he discovered he now had the right band for it.Members of Silkworm, Bottomless Pit, Songs: Ohia, Palliard, Tre Orsi, Sunn O))), Downer Trio and Purple Mountains.
