Songs about New York have a long and storied history. Who hasn't heard someone murder "My Way" at karaoke? And Jay-Z and Alicia Keys remind us that "these streets will make you feel brand new, these lights will inspire you" in "Empire State Of Mind" (mark my words, a contender for Record of the Year at the next Grammys.) The Strokes got in on the act with "New York City Cops," which disappeared from the American release of their debut album. And anyone under six knows the Wiggles' "Central Park New York." So, in that tradition, this sticker is pretty cool; it's for The Dirty Pearls' new single "New York City Is a Drug," produced by industry heavyweight David Kahne (Fishbone, Sublime, Paul McCartney [not his best work,] The Strokes again [the third album, which I liked; sue me] and tons more.) They're an unsigned band, according to their MySpace page, featuring "big f*ing arena-sized vocal melodies with dirty, blues-based guitars and a machine shop back beat." You can hear it at any of the places I've linked to. My only question is, how did an unsigned band get David Kahne to produce them? That's crazy.
