There is nothing cute, pompous, or pretentious about Dirty Filthy Mugs. They are here to play aggressive, fun, honest punk rock...and that's exactly
what they do! So here it is, our first 7" and we're PSYCHED!!! BODKIN DOWNS is the first release from BlankTV's Patient Zero Records.
Tic-tic-tic-a-tac-a-tac, the rim shots get in your head, like a leprechaun dancing a jig on your skull. Pointed riffs punch you in the face so hard
you’ll think Mike Tyson is speed bagging the six-string, bare knuckle and he’s here to eat your children. This isn’t one of your grandma’s tired old
punk tracks. This ain’t no place to be. Bodkin Downs, make me insane!
Dirty Filthy Mugs show no signs of slowing and will be releasing a new full-length album in February, 2011, while continuing to bring their incredibly
addictive live punk mayhem to as many punks, skins, skaters, psychos, mods, rockers, hooligans and outcasts as possible!
First pressing of 500 copies, on black vinyl with a super rare B-Side of "Running Wild." "Runnin Wild" will not be available in any other format so
this is it. Recorded at Castle Productions in Los Angeles, California, by Bradley Cook.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.
Just to clarify, I think this is the first release of the label, not the band. Dirty Filthy Mugs are fucking great and have a few releases out
already. Only one full length so far, but two or three EPs, all of which are well worth the meager sums they're charging.
yes, you're right - poor thread title structure on my part!
BlankTV is starting a label and the first release they're putting out is by Dirty Filthy Mugs

I keep waiting for more people to get into these guys, I think they've got something good going on in that whole Swingin' Utters, early Dropkick
Murphys, Street Dogs kinda sound. Definitely not breaking new ground musically, but good songs are still good songs and they seem to be putting things
across sincerely and with lyrics that I can relate to pretty damn well.
