Scored a copy of the latest Magic Dirt album from Agent Lizzy Pepper out there in Oz at The Dirtbag News Organisation. Tough Love continues the high-end work of this fine combo and further ponders the question of exactly why this group hasn't conquered the world. As the world readies itself for a Pixies reunion, the Dirt have all their chops and a whole wad more. Short sharp jolts of real rockin' - they got 'em. Spaced out psychedelics with feedback sorbet to spare? Plenty o' that in supply too. They combine many, many elements to make a heckuva noise. But it's not Nu-metal, just good natured all-weather rawk that should really be pointing them at the stratosphere. These kids have it all and why Adalita isn't a role model for a new generation surely bears investigation by authorities on such behaviour. Their website doesn't seem to be operating at the minute but when it is, like them Staples said... I'll take you there.
