Our homies Dirty on Purpose are releasing a brand new, exclusive track from their RCRD LBL EP Dead Volcanoes today, entitled “The Thing About Getaways”. Even more so than their previous singles, this track is straight up urban Americana, with guitars almost cribbed from the Bruce Springsteen Book of Awesome. With Joe Jurewicz holding down the ‘90s-nostalgia vocals, “The Thing About Getaways” is DOP’s indie-poppiest song yet, possessing that guitar jangle reminiscent of the Wedding Present or Felt, only raised on the hard pavement of NYC. There’s a reason why this band is one of the best in the city right now, and have been for the past five years: there’s a core of sincerity here, a level of songwriting concocted from the age-old formula of guitar + sitting alone in bedroom writing = heart-wrenching indie-folk.
