Exclusive: Check Out The New Dirty Nil Track Right Here!

They don't want that phone call. You want this, though…

August 23, 2018

Canadian punk trio The Dirty Nil will be unleashing their killer new album Master Volume on September 14. To get you in the mood, we've got the first play of I Don't Want That Phone Call for you right now!

The track deals with the harrowing topic of substance abuse. Typically, they haven't sugar-coated anything.

"I’ve found subtlety to be a vastly overrated quality, best left to cardigan wearing jazz tooters. We here at The Dirty Nil prefer to espouse the truth in all its brash glory and ugliness," explains frontman Luke Bentham. "I Don’t Want That Phone Call is a love letter to any individual struggling with substances of self destruction. You’re not alone, there’s help out there, friends."

Catch The Dirty Nil live in the UK next month…
