Planet Weekend
Few bands manage to blur the lines between music, art, and escapism quite like Dirty Nice. Split between London and Lisbon, the UK six-piece have been quietly building a cult following with their unique brand of surrealist indie-pop - a sound that flits between playful whimsy and emotional depth, with enough glitchy production and offbeat charm to keep you guessing. Now, theyâre throwing open the gates to Planet Weekend, their third album and most ambitious project yet.
Led by the inventive duo of Charlie Pelling and Mark Thompson, Dirty Nice have a knack for pulling you into their oddball world. Known as much for their self-made animations as their music, theyâve created a multi-sensory experience online thatâs as much about the visuals as it is the hooks. Think MGMTâs day-glo pop meets the Flaming Lipsâ psychedelic theatrics, but with a distinctly British eccentricity that also draws inspiration from Charlieâs time composing for cult Channel 4 hit âDonât Hug Me Iâm Scaredâ.
Planet Weekend is Dirty Nice at their most refined yet. An amusement park inspired by 1990s television adverts providing the perfect home for this oddball troupe of characters. Leaning into their signature cocktail of glitch- pop and guitar-driven funky, psychedelic indie, the album explores themes of isolation, love, fantasy and the hazy limbo between virtual and real life.
