Phebe Starr - Dirt - Available 28 February

SWEAT, GRIT, AND BIG HAIR

Australian indie pop artist Phebe Starr’s sophomore album, Dirt, is a must-have for vinyl lovers. This evocative collection delves into the effects of digitization while celebrating the timeless pillars of songwriting and artistry. Featuring 11 tracks—including an exclusive bonus track, a hauntingly beautiful cover of The Cure’s In Between Days available only on vinyl—Dirt is a true collector’s gem. The vinyl’s stunning artwork, created by London-born surrealist icon Penny Slinger and shot in her L.A. studio, adds a special visual layer that can only be fully appreciated in person.

Dirt channels the raw energy of 1980s new wave, transporting listeners to smoky nightclubs alive with "sweaty animals" dancing until dawn—a visceral escape from the isolating world of endless scrolling and curated feeds.

This isn’t just music; it’s an immersive experience. Dirt is an ode to craftsmanship, a testament to enduring creativity, and a call to build a meaningful future. With experimental production, moments of deliberate discomfort, and a deep emotional resonance, Starr’s album is perfect for vinyl enthusiasts who crave music that transcends the ordinary and offers an escape into a vibrant, tactile reality.

Add Dirt to your collection and rediscover the magic of music that truly lasts a lifetime.
