"The songs have that sort of gritty, hazy feel, that sounds like how dusty air looks in the sunlight just cracking through drawn window blinds in the corner of a dark opium den — dirty yet floating; melodic yet tainted." Keith N. Dusenberry: Real Detroit Weekly

DIRTYLOVEBITES have created a space between the dreamers and the screamers.
The vocals are soft and haunting...with the sounds of fuzzed-out, shoegaze, retro tones.

“I was born under a bridge in Detroit, Michigan” are the opening words to DIRTYLOVEBITES “Trembelin” . I can’t be sure where in Detroit the idea for this band was hatched, but it could have been under a bridge. Or in a sewer tunnel. Or next to some railroad tracks. Or in a squatters’ den. The songs have that sort of gritty, hazy feel, that sounds like how dusty air looks in the sunlight just cracking through drawn window blinds in the corner of a dark opium den — dirty yet floating; melodic yet tainted.
The band was conceived by Jason Garner and Amy Asmar. It’s along the lines of The Jesus and Mary Chain, etc. So fuzzy, druggy, psyche-y, shoegaze it is. But there’s a pop sensibility that should appeal to those generally uninterested in a genre given to protracted experiments in sonic sleep induction. In other words, they’re good.

Contributed by Tom K: March 18,2007: Emerging from Detroit, DIRTYLOVEBITES are one of the more appealing bands I've stumbled across online recently.
With a sound dwelling in an old dusty roadhouse halfway between dreamy psychedelia and a 70s rock groove, they offer their own unique sonic seduction that sits somewhere 'between the dreamers and the screamers' of rock. With rather relaxed fuzzed-out vibes, somewhat gritty, they evoke thoughts of late sidestreet bars in a more perfectly impaired world. Yes, you'll hear the influences of My Bloody Valentine & The Jesus and Mary Chain here, the sounds I've grown up to love and live and break to, but there's also a backbone of retro tones which take you all the way back to bands such as the Yardbirds.
It's not often a band can turn me onto such a fluid blues rock style, but these guys songs work such seductions at liberty with me. It's the fusion of styles that makes all the difference. "Don't Go To Strangers" has a monstrously infectious dirty bass hook, so much so that when a blues guitar smoothes in, it hardly registers that such a slant is more than borderline antithesis to my more indie-punk heart. Its just such a great tune, and the blend of styles work really well. "Trembelin" is stripped-down blues rock, with vocals swapped from main vocalist Jason Garner over to Amy Asmar for what is a more susceptible softness and innocence in delivery (I'm grabbed by the same innocence that I hear when Mo Tucker sang After Hours for the VU).
They don't seem to have a website or any released material as yet, but a few tracks are available to download from their myspace, well worth checking out. DIRTYLOVEBITES are a band that I would like to hear a lot more from.
