i think their sound is cohesive and unique. the fact that their albums sound similar isn\'t a bad thing, i think its actually great to see a young bad have such a solid sense of self... its great rock music, great lyrics, and fun with syncopation and rhythm.

btw, the show at toads was the most fun i\'ve had a toads in a very very very long time. they sounded great, the crowd size was perfect, and they played an absolutely awesome set!!

:shrug: a well written and preformed song is still good imo, regardless how much technology was used or what came before it. Their harmonies and song writing are fantastic given their size on the scene. That\'s enough for me.


Great for you. For me every time I listen to them I am reminded so strongly of The Beatles I can not help but make the comparisons and Dr. Dog comes up short.

Also if all their albums did not sound the same I might give them a little more credit for originality.

What does this Dr. Dog sound like?  

I live in my own corner of the musical world and have cut myself off to a lot of things.

Think The Beatles/Beach Boys but those bands did more with less as far as technology.
Great songs and fun to listen to though just not that original.

^^truth~!

Fate is by far the best album of the year, probably the decade, possibly ever.  The best way I can describe their sound is grungy beatles.  By far the best true \'pop\' band right now.  Song writing, harmony, chops...  Incredible.

just threw it up in the legal download thread.
ah,the irony..
lol

Revised now that I have the other albums to listen to. Have not listened begining to end, but "We all belong" sounds like it\'s going to be just as good as "fate" was. :thumbsup:


It is!  I love Dr. Dog!

I shot video from upstairs. thoughout the night I saw some guy holding a camera up in the middle of the crowd and thought "wow, that\'s going to be shakey".  Went downstairs after, saw it was peck. he looks at me and says "I was going to go upstairs but there was someone taping there. that was YOU?" :lol:

so anyway, mine should have a little better audio but his is a cleaner shot. I got all but one song. unless there is anything horrible with the audio I\'ll have it on youtube later this weekend.

does anyone know there songs well enough to put together a setlist? I can figure out the stuff from fate, but the other songs I\'m going to have to hope for a lyrics site for them...
