Dirty Circus

CONTACT BAND - dirtycircus@hotmail.com



Dirty Circus next who delivered a tight rocking set that came across like The View. Harsh, dangerous and very effective, their electro acid house tinges and massive guitar work set against dirty rolling basslines that wouldn’t be out of place on the club scene, if you think of The Cult meets Flowered Up, you’ve got a pretty good idea of the places this band will be going over the next twelve months. Probably right to the top actually. A killer band. I even had a good old dance. CLASH MAGAZINE



An interesting mix of electro acid house set against ‘dirty basslines’, Dirty Circus are set to rouse the laziest of gig goers with their lethal fusion of dance genres. FLY MAGAZINE



Think about electronica and you are pelted kicking and screaming back into the eighties, it’s polyester doused in enough hair spray to create yet another hole in the ozone layer, or at least add to the one that is already there. Tonight however, we have electronica mixed with the latest in indie chic, very 2005 wouldn’t you say? Synthesisers and keyboards accompany each lazy guitar riff and bass-line that Dirty Circus serves up. With each beat the band positively swagger, drudging up a type of arrogance any parker wearing, beer guzzling, Mancunian would have been proud of ten years ago, when the music world was in love with Brit Pop. It is the confidence, and sheer front that keeps you watching Dirty Circus, they know they are good, and you are left waiting/hoping for a chance to believe them. The songs are well constructed, occasionally working their way into anthemic choruses, which manage to kick a somewhat static audience into life.
