Taking their name from the assassinated San Franciscan politician, Harvey Milk are Creston Spiers, Steven Tanner and Paul Trudeau. Their first two albums ‘My Love is Higher Than Your Assessment of What My Love Could Be’ and ‘Courtesy and Goodwill Toward Men’ mixed massive sludgy riffs with classical music, Kiss and everything in between. The songs were given an extra dimension with Spiers’ powerful, heartwrenching (and sometimes gutwrenching) vocals.

Following those two albums, the band changed drummers and released a more straightforward Rock n Roll party record called ‘The Pleaser’ with new drummer Kyle Spence before disbanding.

In the new millenium the original line-up of the Milk returned and a new album called ‘Special Wishes’ was released in 2006.

A 3-hour concert dvd just been released in conjunction with Chunklet magazine and reissues of earlier material are available via Relapse records.

wow I came here totally not expecting the massive use of the term "hipster" in a derogatory sense. We're all fucking hipsters on a site which tracks & shows off our music taste... just saying. Also saying: I really want to see the film "Milk"!!
