High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Vol 1: The Aural Underground is the first album by Mammal, which was unconventionally recorded at a live show in contrast to a studio environment. Mammal, known very well for their intense and impressionable live shows, recorded the album live in one take, from start to finish at a sold out gig at The Evelyn Hotel in their home town of Melbourne, Australia on 2 February 2007. Released and sold on their album launch tour, the album was then released in stores six days later.
