Album Review: The Big Dirty – The Sex

The Big Top Of Dirty Rock.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls welcome to an evening of lollipop licking, baton twirling and eye- popping, candied high jinks. Oh yes, my friends, tread carefully, watch what you say because this band of drunk and debauched boys are waiting to rain those innuendos down on your fragile little heads. It is time to get down amongst the grit and grime with these mucky pups, they should come with a public health warning really. Armed with a bottle of rum, I venture inside The Big Dirty house, if I don’t return, please send help.

Three singles have already been released and have garnered an unhealthy interest from the audience. For those who like Glam/Sleaze rock, this is the cure for all your ills. A swallow of this bad medicine will see you right. A naughty little intro sets the scene and you need to ‘Hold My Beer’ while downright dirty singer Mr Rocket wants to ‘hold her close and give her a dose’, lock up your daughters, put cotton wool in your ears, it’s all lewd, crude and rude, and you are roped in whether you like it or not.

Let’s hop on board the rodeo now, resplendent in skin-tight leggings( oo-er missus) and shout for the ‘Dirty Rider’ who can’t wait to ‘get inside you’ okay…erm….let me consult the book of horizontal gymnastics. There, in its hallowed pages we find the guys caught brandishing their ‘Whiskey Pistol’ in flagrante! The aim of the game is to shock, rock and de-frock the uninitiated, and ringmaster  Rocket, his microphone gripped firmly will no doubt infiltrate those most unreachable parts with his dusty and dusky vocals. Revelling and relishing in  the Bacchanalian philosophy, it’s a wall to wall, floor to ceiling party.

It’s time to ‘Take It Slow’ and make it last ‘All Night Long’ with the ‘Devil Woman’ on your side and the pulsating ‘Rhythm Of My Drum’ that is effervescent with canny streetwise, smart talking, ‘what’s up pussycat?’ attitude. Witness a falling apart at the seams, night of your dreams, because these lads are well versed in creating a hotbed of activity, ahem. Not so much ‘Hush’ next as the band freely admit they are here for ‘the big push’ well, really, that’s a red card right there! A time to recline and reflect in ‘Sensual Lover’ which has a touch of Poison circa ‘Every Rose…’ a classic acoustic rock ballad, however, Americans don’t necessarily do it better.

With luscious lasciviousness, bawdy boudoir antics galore, this is the soundtrack to a Carry On movie, so as you were people. To close this runaway ride of your lives  we have a ‘how’s your father?’ slam dunk with ‘Wham Bam( Thank You Ma’am)’ and we breathe in and then out.

Outrageously funny and frisky, an unstoppable mix of staunch and raunch they are ripe and ready to seize the Sleaze UK crown, let’s hear it for these dirty Berties!
