The Dirty Mitts first came together in 2018 with a mutual love of loud, old-school rock ‘n’ roll and hail from the UK, Poland, and Egypt.

You Better Run (Villains Theme!) is their latest single and was released on 02/06/2023.

The track is a great upbeat song that will certainly get the listener moving in one way or another. With a foundation in hard rock, there are elements of other genres showing through too, and these range from glam rock to AOR.

The song is inspired by the action and epic nature of the first few Marvel films and imagines a world in which people with superpowers have never been seen before. It tells the story of a winged man descending to earth, who is then immediately set upon by the army as they don’t know whether his intentions are good or bad!

Although the song was originally written nearly a decade ago, new members of the band have greatly improved it to what we hear today.

The guitar work is heavy but also quite bluesy, and the drumming is energetic and frenetic. With some meaty basslines to back everything up and keep everything together, the musical side of this song is fantastic and there is some obvious talent within the band.

The vocals are gritty, strong, powerful, and downright dirty! There is a swagger in his voice that is full of attitude, and this really gives the track great character.

This is an awesome song and a band that I very much look forward to hearing more from in the near future!
