The Dogs July 25, 2009

Raging out of the legendary Motor City rock scene of the '70s, which spawned such musical touchstones as the Stooges, MC5, Amboy Dukes, Up, and other lesser known but equally ferocious proto-punk acts, The Dogs (Loren Molinare, Mary Dryer, Ron Wood) packed all the feral energy and cultural angst of that era into their live shows and an enduring set of recordings. Now they're back, and rocking harder than just about any band -- young or otherwise -- that dares to call themselves punk.
