Dogs are a post-punk-influenced rock band from Cambridge consisting of Johnny Cooke (vocals), Luciano Vargas (vocals, guitar), Rikka Mehta (guitar), Duncan Timms (bass) and Rich Mitchell (drums).

It is highly likely that their record label have authored their Wikipedia page. See below for further information.

With anthemic energy and punky overtones, Dogs have style, swagger and more than a touch of indignant anger. They’ve toured with Paul Weller, and are consistently ranked as one of Britain’s best live bands.

Their debut album “Turn Against This Land” released in August 2005 was recorded at Cornwall’s Sawmills studio, produced by John Cornfield. It contained the singles “London Bridge”/”End of an Era” (a double A side), “Tuned to a Different Station” and “Selfish Ways”.

Dogs’ have returned during 2007 delivering the trio of singles: “Soldier On” followed by “This Stone Is A Bullet” and now released on June 18th - “Dirty Little Shop”. The E.P. is accompanied by tracks “Trouble with Honesty” and “Stay There” all cited as good enough for any A-side.

This culminates in the release of their second album on June 25th titled “Tall Stories from under the table”, an album that see’s the bands sound mature, still the same passion, but more refined and even more compelling.
