‘literate, louche alt-rock’ – Guardian
'a dark heart plucked straight from the Nick Cave School of Indecency.' – NME
‘these literate scally-wags neatly reproduce the Pixies’ dark eroticism, Morrissey’s erudite cheek and Nick Cave’s unhinged fantasies, conjuring the odd dancefloor-bound, indie-rock banger. Musically, more or less, this offering has ‘Humbug mk II etched all over it.’ – The Fly
Stranger Records signing Filthy Boy will be joining King Krule on his forthcoming October tour. Filthy Boy revel in storytelling and the construction of fantasy. The debut album 'Smile That Won't Go Down' – recorded in less than a week in Edywn Collins' West Heath Studio – was released in April to critical acclaim. Laced with romance and intrigue, stories don't finish as expected, there's drama, suggestion and blurred boundaries between innocence and murky darkness. |
