Album notes
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. From the Scottish town that brought you the gentle sounds of Belle & Sebastian and Camera Obscura comes a horse (or dog) of an entirely different color. Glaswegian band Dogs Die in Hot Cars sounds like it spent the last several years holed up in a closet with the first four XTC albums, and to fine effect. Though cynics may decry the Andy Partridge-like vocal yelps, New Wave-influenced feel, and brashly melodic popcraft as too derivative, anyone who ever hoisted a lite beer to the uber-geek sounds of DRUMS & WIRES should be overjoyed at the way this gang of Scottish misfits has so perfectly captured that late-1970s/early-'80s vibe. You can almost see the skinny ties swinging back and forth in front of loud, primary-color suits as the Dogs work their magic, kicking up a fair amount of frenetic rock & roll dust even as they show off their well-schooled pop smarts on their debut album, PLEASE DESCRIBE YOURSELF.
Editorial reviews
[A] revisionist new wave history lesson....Cheeky Craig Macintosh keeps the energy high... CMJ
4 stars out of 5 - [O]ne of the catchiest, oddest debuts in recent memory. Alternative Press
4 stars out of 5 - [U]rgent, breezy pop underpinned by freakishly imaginative arrangements, thoughtful lyrics and Craig Macintosh's soaring vocals. Q
