The Dirty Nil started to build their ever-growing fan base through extensive touring and releasing a number of 7″ records to enthusiastic support since 2008. Less than a decade later, the Hamilton/Toronto-based loud-rock trio are continuing to tour and have released their latest 7″ No Weaknesses / Provisional this past weekend.

From that, the B-side track “Provisional” has been released as a single, as the band covers the 1988 track from punk band Fugazi. Putting a subtle spin on the track and adding the Dirty Nil’s signature grittiness, the B-side helps to build anticipation for their upcoming full length sometime in 2016.
