    <description>Mika Miko is an underground &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/tag/punk&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_tag&quot; rel=&quot;tag&quot;&gt;punk&lt;/a&gt;/&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/tag/noise&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_tag&quot; rel=&quot;tag&quot;&gt;noise&lt;/a&gt; band formed in 2003 in Los Angeles, California, U.S.  Mika Miko has made a name for themselves by being truly on their own program.  This 5 piece &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/tag/punk&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_tag&quot; rel=&quot;tag&quot;&gt;punk&lt;/a&gt; band will defend the term with all their power because they are just that, an amazing &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/tag/punk&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_tag&quot; rel=&quot;tag&quot;&gt;punk&lt;/a&gt; band, both in spirit and attitude. Pounding their way through interesting, fast &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/tag/pop&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_tag&quot; rel=&quot;tag&quot;&gt;pop&lt;/a&gt; songs that leave you wondering how they pull the steam all the way through.  Imagine a high school dance where &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/Red+Cross&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_artist&quot;&gt;Red Cross&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/Black+Flag&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_artist&quot;&gt;Black Flag&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/X-Ray+Spex&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_artist&quot;&gt;X-Ray Spex&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/The+Slits&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_artist&quot;&gt;The Slits&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/The+Germs&quot; class=&quot;bbcode_artist&quot;&gt;The Germs&lt;/a&gt; are all playing at with an updated flare of excitement and anxiousness.  That feeling you are thinking of is the feeling of Mika Miko and the sound you are imagining is only part of the equation that makes Mika Miko a local favorite in L.A., and everywhere else. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.last.fm/music/Mika+Miko&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Listen at Last.fm&lt;/a&gt;</description>
