Dogs, The - 1978 - Slash Your Face 7'' (US)

Dogs, The - 1978 - Slash Your Face 7'' (US)
download
.
Killer heavy Detroit sound reminscent of the MC5, Stooges with a touch of Blue Oyster Cult-style thunder. The Dogs's sound is tough as hell. They create a menacing, brass knuckle sound with a mauling rhythm section and a ferocious guitar. "Slash Your Face," leaps at you, going straight for your throat and doesn't let up until you're left bleeding, pleading and outta breath. They even make the Barbarians' campy hit "Are You A Boy or Are You a Girl" sound tough.

Great Post! Just a bit of extra info, these Dogs & the Dogs you posted a while back are two different bands. These guys are of course from Michigan, & The Dogs who released the Rot n' Roll 7" & the Teen Slime LP are from Decorah, Iowa. Both great bands! Thanks so much for all three! Do you perhaps have the John Rock 7"?

One of the most kick ass records of all time! Sounds like the same band to me? Can you please verify?
