Description:
In the winter of 2007, Milk headed off to the 160 year old Yapeen Pub in Central Victoria to record the bones of their second full length album, "Shipwrecked at the Royal Oak". In typical Milk style, it was fleshed out and finished in kitchens and bedrooms around Brunswick, capturing that true Melbourne sound, before finally being mixed and polished by Dave Nelson (The Killjoys).

The result is an accomplished recording that features rollicking, kick up your heels songs about pirates, the Australian gold rush and drinking in Melbourne pubs, spine tingling laments dedicated to activists trying to save old growth trees in Tasmania and dying rivers in Victoria, romantic serenades to dancing and ukuleles and gospel songs about love and real estate.

This new collection of songs was written and inspired by the band's travels around Australia playing at Folk festivals with the likes of Mick Thomas and the Sure Thing at Nannup in WA and Peggy Seeger at Cygnet in Tasmania, as well as late night story telling with locals, in rickety old country halls and pubs.
