Dirty Pretty Things played their first shows in October 2005 in Italy and France.
Initially, the choice of name caused some troubles. A four-piece band from Salisbury had been playing as “Dirty Pretty Things” since early January of 2005, claiming to have already copyrighted the name in the UK; the two groups ended up coming to an agreement over the name. An Australian band had also been playing under that name since 2003, though since opted to change it.
Dirty Pretty Things began recording their first album in Los Angeles, California, with high-profile producer Dave Sardy (producer of the Oasis album Don’t Believe the Truth), and in Glasgow, Scotland with producer Tony Doogan.
The first track of the band’s to be released on the CD format was “You Fucking Love It” which was made available on a free CD with the April 1, 2006 issue of NME entitled “NME and MTV2 present Best Newbands Showcase 2006”.
