About this listen

So you wanna be in a rock 'n' roll band? You should hear this testimony from the Dirty Nil frontman Luke Bentham first.


The Dundas, Ontario rockers released their fifth album 'The Lash' on Friday, July 25. It's another blistering collection of high-octane anthems inspired by the likes of the Who and the Stooges, full of arena rock histrionics and hardcore punk ferocity (with a few tender moments in between). It also marks the happiest chapter of the Dirty Nil's career to date.


Luke and I discuss the Catholic inspiration behind 'The Lash,' the exorbitant costs of running a radio campaign, the trials and tribulations that inspired much of their new album, and why the Dirty Nil are having the best time of their lives.
