While the band name doesn’t inspire much, luckily for them, DOGS‘ music is considerably better. The four-man Dublin band have been active since last year and have a Soundcloud with nine songs to check out. Generally, their music could be described as atmospheric dance-leaning melodic indie. So there. ‘East’ is the best of their set so far, a pulsating slice of synth rock.

DOGS are playing Pogo in Twisted Pepper this Saturday along with Futures Apart, Fuzzy Empire and Lil Dave of Nightflight DJing. Facebook event.
