The Return of the Purposely Filthy

Our old friends Dirty on Purpose are back in town tonight at the First Unitarian Church with crazy Canadian indie folk pop outfit the Hidden Cameras, so it's time to head on down to Center City and worship at the indie rock altar! Dirty on Purpose will no doubt be playing plenty of tracks from their brand new album, Hallelujah Sirens, which we've had a chance to listen to thanks to the generosity of a fellow local blogger. Verdict: it's good! It's got a really nice sound to it. Lots of pleasant, melodic indie pop rock. Great music to sway and ponder to - sort of like Yo La Tengo. Something aboout it is reminding us of the Breeders, too. The real stand-out track is the bouncing, rollicking "Car No Driver," a fantastic song about being passed on the road by a car without a driver, amongst other things.

The point is, it's a good album, so hopefully it will be a good show, and that's at least one good reason to show up for church.
