DIRTY FACES
GET RIGHT WITH GOD
The Dirty Faces play bang-up rock ‘n roll. Pushers of that punkass sound. Rickety Rock, from
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the home of Rock & Roll. The band has suffered from and been
propelled and inspired by every stupid rock cliché ever to have propelled, inspired and
destroyed the health and sanity (not to mention careers) of its members, and yet somehow,
the Dirty Faces just keep on getting better. Drugs, relationship problems and sheer laziness
are some of the reasons band members leave the Dirty Faces. Sometimes they come back for
the same reasons. Drummers come and go, the notion of excellent musicianship is alternately
embraced and discarded, and yet the Dirty Faces continue to set higher and higher standards
of what a good rock ‘n roll record can and indeed should sound like in 2006.
Get Right with God, out on Brah Records, is the second of a trilogy that started with 2005’s
Superamerican (Brah Records, 2005). The Dirty Faces managed to keep the same line-up
together over the course of the past year, although they’ve discarded the two-drummer
assault they used when touring Superamerican. The band is T. Glitter on vocals, Tricky
Powers on bass, Tweekit and Leadfoot Powers on guitars, Sweet Willie Powers on the drums
and Bloody H. Powers on keyboards. As on Superamerican, one track features founding
member Dickie Powers and former drummer God-of-Fortune Powers. The Dirty Faces
believe in acknowledging their own history, while moving on. Get Right with God is more
focused, musically—harder and heavier than Superamerican.
“The Dirty Faces sound pretty much as advertised. They play rock and roll like the Stillers
play football—hard, angry, muddy, with a chip on their shoulder, and a playbook that has
all the unnecessary pages ripped out. It’s heavy, but not really punk, not really metal, and
not garage rock in the color-coordinated matching-suits sense. It’s rusty, dirty Pittsburgh
rock with bad attitude to burn...” —Mike Machosky, Greensburg/Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
“Classic Rust Belt punk, a frenzied take on drug use and crumbling relationships in a city
where everybody knows everybody.” —Pat Sullivan, Index Magazine
“...unstoppable superheroes-of-rock explosion...” —Manny Theiner, Pittsburgh City Paper
