The Cliks — Dirty King (2009)
Alternative rock | mp3 VBR V2 (193 kbps avg.) | 45 min | 62 MB

Dirty King is the third album from the Canadian rock band Cliks consisting of Lucas Silveira (vocalist/guitarist), Jen Benton (bass), and Morgan Doctor (drums). The Cliks have been compared to the likes of David Bowie and the White Stripes with the release of their major debut, Snakehouse (2007). Native to Toronto, they are the first transgender band to be signed to a major record label, with lead singer Silveira working his experiences with identity as a transman into his music. In his transition from female to male he sacrificed the use of male hormones to maintain his singing voice. (Wikipedia)


The cover shot of their new album, Dirty King, features frontman Lucas as a beaten-down boxer in a ring alongside his bandmates. The singer says that the image was a natural match, designed to illustrate some of the darkness that came from making this new CD.
"To me, it was about exposing vulnerability," says Silveira. "That's the intention behind it. This album has some places that are really dark and vulnerable. I felt a lot of hurt and really exposed as a human being in places that I never, ever would've thought. That is me taking a few punches." (Spinner)
