This is the second French rock album I received a few days ago and with this one, things suddenly got a lot hotter. I had to play this one loud, for all my neighbours to enjoy, at least loud enough to make it sound like a live performance on some festival. Why? Well, mainly because this is live music, written and recorded for one purpose only: blast it through massive speakers in front of a frenzied audience.
Dog 'n Style combine heavy rock 'n roll with flashes of stoner rock, hints of metal and whatever it is that those massive American stadion bands play. The end result is something quite interesting, as if Zakk Wylde joined Kuyss or Lemmy fronted Iron Maiden. Opener 'The Best Of Me' perfectly states that with is groovy, heavy and melodic approach and it's chorus with a tremendous sing-along capacity.
'I Did Something Wrong' is my favorite track on this album, driving on an uplifting lead guitar and enough groove to shake you out of your pants. 'Mad Motorcycle' might be the song with the most hit potential, on an alternative radio that is. Commercial station will have none of this but that's exactly why I will have nothing of commercial radio stations, they suck and Dog 'n Style rocks, period.
Obviously, this is party music, designed to enjoy with a 'Couple Of Beers' (yes, that is a song title), in a hot and sweaty venue while the band on stage blasts the wax out of your ears. If you like rock music, this definitely is something for you. If you're into anything from Led Zeppelin to Linkin Park and from Queens Of The Stone Age to Alice In Chains, you need to get your hands on this. Party hard, you know you want to.
