RUE BELLA – FLIRT WITH THE DIRT
A Spill Exclusive Album Premiere
Although born out of the sleepy town of Newmarket, ON, Rue Bella’s sound is anything but provincial. Bending the carnival menace of Tom Waits and gritty alt-rock acts like Pj Harvey and Hole, Rue Bella define themselves in an sultry marriage of disparate genres. Their first full-length Flirt with the Dirt, produced by John-Angus MacDonald (the Trews, the Glorious Sons) is a snapshot of a band on a sonic bender, not quite ready to dry out.
Artist Quote
“Flirt With the Dirt is lush, moody, and electric. The four of us stem from quite different musical influences, this album really showcases that. With tracks like gothic & grungy’Socialites’, in contrast to our quirky & sassy first single “Piggy”, or our bluesy slow-jam of Nirvana’s “Come As You Are”… we’re really quite all over the place and constantly avoiding the boredom of doing the same thing twice. I think that was conveyed nicely in Flirt With the Dirt.” ~Taylor Cos (lead singer/keyboards)
