Did you realise that country music is simply punk played too slowly?

Some Dogs band members have been on the country & punk scene in England for twenty years, having served time with bands like Demented Are Go!, Big Boy Tomato, Macavity's Cat, The Mekons, The Men They Couldn't Hang, Doo The Moog, Hagar the Womb, The Buc-Buc-Bucket band. The band was formed by Jim Dog & Big Bird on a simple premise - country tunes & lyrics kick emotional ass but if they were speeded up and put through a Marshall they would kick audio ass too. This turned out to be correct. Some Dogs champion some of the cheesy classic currently denegrated by the new country orthodoxy.
