Yessiree boys and girls! It's here! The long awaited second album by Mark & the Spies! The album, entitled 'Give Me A Look', is once again recorded by the legendary E.J. 'I've got my mono working' Kloosterboer and filled with great jangling guitar-pop with a delicious sixties sauce. In times where the packaging, the number of different color pressings, the most limited circulation and the crapiest sound seems to be more important than the ability to write a great, simple and dead catchy tune, MARK & THE SPIES entered the studio again to prove all you self-appointed rock'n'roll experts wrong, with their awesome blend of pure crystalline 60's pop and classic garage-beat. MARK & THE SPIES, those sixties beat hitmakers, hailing from a damned little village called Veenendaal in the Netherlands. They started out as a rock'n'roll trio, only having a few v ocal songs, but mostly instrumental Link Wray kinda stuff. After some gigs they broke up, reunited and broke up again. After that Mark (bass/vocals) and Arjan (guitar/vocals) started writing songs of their own. They found themselves a new drummer (Gerrit), a keyboard/saxophone player (Jelle) and things got finally pushed in the right direction. At the beginning of 2007 their first official release saw the light of day, a 7' EP on the Spanish label Butterfly Records and people all around the globe immediately started to rave about it.
