The Mint Chicks were a New Zealand noise rock and art punk group (the band began to refer to their style of music as "troublegum"[1] and have been referred to as anything from neo-punk[2] to schizo-pop[3] to the only half-serious genre definition of shit-gaze[4]). The band is originally from Auckland and relocated to Portland, Oregon, USA in 2007.
