EXCLUSIVE DOWNLOAD: Dirty on Purpose - Canned Fumes

Today is a big one for us, and all fellow Dirty on Purpose fans. When we signed DoP on to create a brand new EP for us from scratch, we knew it would be special, but we had no idea the end result would be Dead Volcanoes, a record that exists on its own terms within the DoP cannon. Like their previous EP Like Bees, Dead Volcanoes takes the niche that the band have found for themselves (sweetened, Americana-influenced indie pop) and churns its ingredients to a fine, yummy pulp.

The final track of the EP, today’s exclusive “Canned Fumes” is no exception to the rule. Sung by guitarist George Wilson, the song borrows amply from bands like the Jesus and Mary Chain, hinting at a return of DoP’s more shoegaze aspects from a few years (and albums) ago. The pace is slow and dreamy, the perfect closer to a record that we’ve grown to adore since its first track, the ballad "Leaving", debuted on the site close to when we firist launched. It’s the end of a chapter in our relationship with DoP, but nowhere near the end of the book. We have way more goodies in store with this bunch, but for now, here’s Dead Volcanoes in its entirety. Enjoy…

Sounds like: The Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine, The Magnetic Fields
