Dirty Skirty "Devil Dancer" Single

In conjunction with Sleaze Roxx, who I have to thank for previously turning me on to some great acts like Wild Bitch and Shock (whose full-length album, "Once Denied", will be making an appearance in my upcoming, "Best of 2013" article!), Floria's Dirty Skirty are streaming their new single "Devil Dancer". Due for inclusion on the band's upcoming studio album "Rebel", which is the the follow-up to 2010's "Long Live Rock N' Roll"* (pictured above and well-worth checking out if this new single is any indication at all of the band's previous work!), the track is prime-mover, shake a leg for rock and roll, hard rock along the lines of Buckcherry. Well, that is if Buckcherry was a bit more more Aerosmith in their approach at life verses, let's say, Guns N' Roses. Step past the gawd awful moniker (I'm sorry, but seriously?) and instead just listen in as Dirty Skirty lead singer Luke Stephens takes you for a little spin down to "Detroit Rock City" via the "Highway To Hell". As carefree as it gets, "Devil Dancer" is the perfect soundtrack for rock and rollers who want to let down their long hair and live and let live!  You can try it on for size at the link below and the new album, which is tentatively scheduled for release on April 6th, will be available for purchase at www.dirtyskirty.com.

Metal Mark's review of "Long Live Rock N' Roll":

Dirty Skirty-Long live rock 'n roll

Self-produced
2010

So far 2010 has been a fine year for metal, but not as much for hard rock. Here is an album that has re-newed my faith in the hard rock scene to some extent. Drawing on such classic influences as AC/DC and Aerosmith, Dirty Skirty pull forth the raw-edged grooves that worked so well to fuel those bands. That's only the beginning though because they pull and twist those grooves to fit with their own sound and they pull it at least somewhat closer to a more current sound. So not only do they retain the swagger of late 70's gritty style of rock, but they add an extra dose of adrenaline and just run with it. They focus on just straight forward, punch and go style, but the attitude and confidence they show helps them to go that extra mile. The lyrics are of typical sleaze type rock fare, but that doesn't hold back Dirty Skirty. Their honesty in their music and their ability to squeeze the most out of simple rhytms is what helps this album to one of the more potent hard rock releases of the year.

Not the most creative cover, but I think they were trying to be respectful to their idols. 1977 set out to create an album of originals that sounds like KISS during their prime and they succeeded.



Billy Milano's M.O.D. "borrowed" MSG's logo for this one. Frankly I don't think anyone whose name is not Schenker should be allowed to put a flying V on their album cover.



Guns and Roses were a definite target during that long, long time when it looked like "Chineese Democracy" would never be released. Treephort were not very subtle in their take on the Use your illusion covers.


Dirty Skirty do a variation on Motley Crue's "Too fast for love".
