Invitation

**Filthy Friends** is **Corin Tucker** *(Sleater-Kinney),* **Peter Buck** *(R. E. M.),* **Scott McCaughey** *(Young Fresh Fellows),* **Kurt Bloch** *(The Fastbacks),* and **Bill Rieflin** *(King Crimson, Ministry).*

**Filthy Friends** is the product of likeminded individuals with nothing to prove getting together and making a heroic racket together that finds space for their many influences and interests.

Lead singer **Corin Tucker** has left an indelible mark on the punk scene through her memberships in *Sleater-Kinney* and *Heavens to Betsy*. Guitarist **Kurt Bloch** has logged a lot of hours as the leader of *The Fastbacks,* as well as serving as a producer/mentor for up and coming Seattle Rock groups. Drummer **Bill Rieflin** has a fine day job as one of the drummers in *King Crimson.* Bassist **Scott McCaughey** keeps plenty busy doing studio work and mining the power pop underground with his long-running band the *Young Fresh Fellows.* As for the other guitarist **Peter Buck**...if you're unfamiliar with him, you haven't been paying attention to the alternative/college/indie rock.

The 12-song collection works through a flurry of different moods and styles, genre exercises and joyous experiments. The intricate guitar knots and blasts of bubblegum pop of **Buck's** beloved *'Television'* are all over the herky-jerky *'Windmill.'* A mashup of '60s downer vibes and rootsy rumblings makes up the marvelous *'Second Life'* whereas *'Come Back Shelley'* is all swagger and glitz in the style of a lost glam rock 45. There ain't nothing this band can't do with the wet clay of rock music and what they sculpt out of it is pure art.

Listen to *'The Arrival'* [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p61MeOqojj0).
