Sounds Like
Purveyors of the amphetamine driven torch song and a blend of the erotic and the neurotic, they endeavour to sound as Jacques Brel would have done, had he owned a Les Paul and a fuzz box. Delivering chunky melodies and suburban angst Dogstand are in their own way building up quite a reputation for creating thoughtful pop tunes for the Prozac generation. They are happiest when they are creating angry, sad tunes with pathos and humour swathed in appealing melodies.
