EspañolMILLTOWN BROTHERS
'Milltown Brothers' are an English Indie band from Colne in Lancashire.
Their first release, in 1989, was the 'Coming From The Mill' EP which became single of the week in NME and featured the songs "Roses", "We've Got Time" and "Something On My Mind".
The band's second indie single was "Which Way Should I Jump", and "Silvertown" was the B-side. After the band signed to A&M worldwide in 1990, "Which Way Should I Jump?" was re-recorded and charted in the UK at number 38, and reached number 10 in the US Modern Rock charts.
An album, called 'Slinky', followed. The next single released from the album was "Here I Stand", which was also used as the theme tune for the television programme Preston Front. It peaked at Number 41.
In 1993 the band released the album 'Valve'. It was not as successful as 'Slinky' and they left the A&M label. It took 10 years for the band to work together again and in March 2004, they released their third studio album - 'Rubberband', which was released on their own label and made available at their official website.
