Pitchfork: Dirty on Purpose Launch Tour

ERRRR EEEEEE ERRRR EEEEE. What's that racket? Oh, right, it's the scream of Dirty on Purpose's tour kickoff sirens. Tonight, the four-piece Brooklyn band launches a jaunt across the States in support of their new album Hallelujah Sirens.

DoP will begin with a live in-studio KEXP.org performance this afternoon before heading to Seattle's Paradox Theater with Say Hi to Your Mom for a omgthisbandnameisTERRIBLE showcase.

The group will then play another radio gig, this time at Los Angeles' Indie 103.1 on July 30, but aside from that, it's all typical rock-at-night business.
