Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Remember back in August when we told you about the new band that Bobby Smith, Bob Rupp, Chris Cheiffo and Jeff Black formed called Sleazy, Loud, Ultra-Trashy -- S.L.U.T. for short? Well, let's just say suspicions confirmed. The outfit's moniker is also a fairly apt description of the collective noise the furious foursome have conjured up. If the ge-ups in the above picture don't give enough indication, S.L.U.T. is drawing from influences pooled in a retro glam-rock gutter. Velvet Revolver pull your trigger? You'll eat this shit up. Page down to have a listen of a rough demo, and then catch the dudes on New Year's Eve at the Lion's Lair, with the Other Russia.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
