Title: Forget about Dogsuck
Review: Of all the "metal" bands to garner some success in the last decade, this is the worst of them, down there with Buckcherry and Creed. The problem is that there is nothing original about them. The guitar soloes sound like a poor copy of Kirk Hammett and the riffs sound like meat-headed approximations of Kim Thayil. Oh, and the singer is a "warlock." Soooooooooooooooo scary. Oooooh. Thank god that metal is making a comeback in the underground and above. Bands like Pelican actually try to make new sounds, use new compositional styles. And rock like mad!!! Mastodon adds free jazz drumming to the aggressive mix. More takers? Everyone will remember to forget dogsuck soon after the new renaissance of metal. Hasn't been one like it since Soundgarden put hair metal in the dust. Post-metal like Pelican, etc. will put this macho junk in the dust as well.
Is the review positive or negative?
