DIRTY LOOKS: First Three Albums Re-Released With Bonus Tracks
January 14, 2010FnA Records is excited to finally be releasing the first three albums (and EP) from the DIRTY LOOKS catalog. The albums consist of the self-titled EP released in 1984 combined with the band's self-titled full-length release from 1985; the second full-length album, entitled "In Your Face" and originally released in 1986; and the third of the pre-major label albums, entitled "I Want More" and originally released in 1987. All three of the albums and the EP were released on vinyl only and in extremely limited quantities, but have now been fully remastered for digital and compact disc release.
FnA Records has spent countless man hours and resources to bring the die-hard fan a fully remastered and truly enjoyable and listenable end product. Those lucky few fans that own the original vinyl recordings (and those that have had to suffer with lackluster bootleg copies over the decades) will truly notice the enhanced sound. Additionally, all three albums contain a never-before-released-bonus track(s),lyrics, and new album cover art.
** "Dirty Looks": As if it wasn't hard enough to find this mega-rare album on its vinyl-only release, FnA Records ups the anty by adding a never-before-released bonus track "And I Do" and then takes it one step further by giving you the impossible to find original 1984 fou- song EP (originally pressed in extreme limited quantities). All 15 tracks have been digitally remastered to enhance the listeners enjoyment. Lastly, this first release will be released in digipack format.
** "In Your Face": Originally released in 1986 as a vinyl-only release, "In Your Face" was the album that helped DIRTY LOOKS become acquainted with both American radio and the underground hard rock fan. FnA Records makes this very rare vinyl-only release available to the fans for the first time on CD and adds a bonus track "Nevermore".
** "I Want More": Originally released in 1987 as a vinyl-only release, "I Want More" was the album that helped lead to a bidding war by the majors for DIRTY LOOKS. FnA Records makes this very rare vinyl-only release available to the fans for the first time on CD and adds TWO never-before-released bonus tracks — "Smell The Gasoline" and the very unlike DIRTY LOOKS tune "Narcissist". The "I Want More" tracks have been digitally remastered to enhance the listener's enjoyment. For those that are familiar with these early recordings, they might recall that some of the tracks were a little tough to listen to due to the constraints of the time. However, a full remastering job by a hard rock engineer and the lyrics included in the artwork will help the listener to enjoy DIRTY LOOKS like they never have before.
All three albums are slated for release in the second week of January 2010. Fans have the option of buying each album individually, as a three-pack at a discounted price, or as an autographed collector's fan edition (limited to 100 signed copies of each album and includes a DIRTY LOOKS T-shirt or laminate. The albums are available directly from the label at www.fnarecords.net, digitally through Sony, and at fine retail outlets like Impulse Music.
