“An angular cross between the Kills and the Velvet Underground, with dark wave and Joy Division residing uneasily beside vintage ground zero punk, all rammed through a contemporary post-punk sieve that's simultaneously shouty, sinewy and sexy. Totally different from any other we'd ever received.”

“...Someone in the BLURT office heard the group's tunes and described the band as "slinkysexycool... and just a little bit filthy, too," which sounds just about right for a band with the name Dirty Dancing. They're one of the good ‘uns, trust us...”

“This is some dark music, think Tom Waits meets The Bad Seeds. This act could break out because after all, no one puts baby in a corner.”

"Brooding post-punk" & "Blues-steeped art-punk"

“Dirty Dancing bring a lo-fi sound that seems to be getting more and more popular as of late. Two people, two guitars, and simple iTunes drums create a minimal yet throbbing sound. The duo tends to decorate the stage with creepy kid mannequin bodies and have been known to cover a mean Gun Club track.”

“Dirty Dancing started the evening off with their remarkably lo-fi double guitar riffs and harmonies that evoked Interpol and most all of K Records. The iTunes run drum and click loops were the bare minimum of what they needed to be, and managed to be changed up enough to make each song different...”

“Dirty Dancing is one of many up and coming young lions of the Austin music scene. I have been enjoying their myspace page for a while now and am very much looking forward to seeing this duo live!”
