Grab a thirty rack of Pabst, a liter of cheap whisky, and call up the boys because “New York City's favorite hard-workin' rock n' roll band” Dirty Fences is back on the road in the USA and ready to party down in town!
The band is doing a thirty-two city long haul tour in support of "Goodbye Love" via NYC’s own Greenway Records, the band’s third studio album and comes as a follow-up to 2013's Too High To Kross (Volcom) and 2015's epic Full Tramp (Slovenly). The album is available on limited-edition splatter vinyl, cassette, CD and digitally.
Dirty Fences is a quintessential New York band: the kind the city is known for producing; the band you’d want to hear blasting out the PA at some dive bar that is beyond capacity before they even take stage. They often refer to themselves as a gang, and that mentality is evident in every meaty riff and perfectly-executed harmony on Goodbye Love. It’s a perfect slice of wax that evokes early American rock and punk acts such as Redd Kross, The MC5, and Johnny Thunders — whilst showing an obsession with early KISS and Motley Crüe through the lens of The Dictators and Ramones —yet the band still manages to maintain an identity all its own this new record.

Order 'Goodbye Love' Dirty Fences Greenway Records
Dirty Fences' third studio album, Goodbye Love, came out October 27th via Greenway Records. Like their past releases, it's full of meaty riffs, sing-along choruses, and perfectly-executed harmonies and finds the band's high-energy, tongue-in-cheek vibe fully intact.
NYC's Dirty Fences are true road warriors, having covered every hectare of fruited plain in the USA and practically every kilometer on the European continent.
