Posted April 10, 201411 yr Background info about the band: After cutting their teeth playing the Chicago indie club scene several years back, Peppermint Heaven aka Juno (Vocals, Keyboards) and Spark (Vocals, Bass, Drums) separately made the long trek from Chicago to LA, eventually winding up together in the summer of 2011. There they began to create their own tasty brand of indie pop, replete with heavenly harmonies, Juno’s delicious keyboard hooks and Spark’s inventive bass ‘n’ beats. Peppermint Heaven found a home at indie-band playground The Bedrock in LA’s Echo Park, and began the process of honing their sound. After a wintry trip to London in early 2013, the boys decided that the UK would be the perfect launching pad for the band. This made perfect sense, as many of their influences hail from the UK (Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys, Simple Minds, New Order, Howard Jones and Psychedelic Furs to name a few) http://www.peppermintheaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/PH_jeffandbro-300x200.jpg Bio After cutting their teeth playing the Chicago indie club scene several years back, Peppermint Heaven aka Juno (Vocals, Keyboards) and Spark (Vocals, Bass, Drums) separately made the long trek from Chicago to LA eventually winding up together in the summer of 2011 when they began creating their own tasty brand of 80s-influenced indie pop, replete with heavenly harmonies, Juno’s delicious keyboard hooks and Spark’s inventive bass ‘n’ beats. Taking their name from an obscure pre-Smiths Morrissey song, Peppermint Heaven found a home at indie band playground The Bedrock in LA’s storied Echo Park area and several months of playing, writing, recording, mixing, and honing their sound followed. After a wintry trip to London in early 2013, the boys decided that the UK would be the perfect launching pad for the band. This made perfect sense, as many of their influences hail from the UK (Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys, Simple Minds, New Order, Howard Jones, Psychedelic Furs to name a few). The result is their debut release – The Delicious EP – which features remixes of fan favourites “Into Gold” and “So Unbelievable” by Mike Rizzo, Almighty and Buzz Junkies especially tailored for the UK market. The Delicious EP will be released this Fall on Megahit Records. So, get ready as Juno & Spark take you to Peppermint Heaven!

September 16, 201410 yr iXIptQVv7oU Not sure if you guys had an opportunity to check this one out.. There's a wicked and weird new lyric video for 'Karmageddon'. Anybody got any ideas for what Karmageddon might mean?
September 16, 201410 yr It's a play on the words karma and armageddon, but my first thought was of the amazing 90's racing game 'Carmageddon' :wub:
