Album Description

The Dog & Everything is a pop-rock group whose songs are alive with an undeniable energy. The foundation of the D&E's sound is pop oriented lyrics with strong rock melodies. Dog & Everything have worked hard in the last year writing and recording songs for their debut album Bandshell while performing and promoting themselves as much as possible. Previous to the album's release, the D&E had already racked up multiple spins on Chicago's two major market rock stations like Q101 and WXRT, and daytime rotation on college stations. Their songs'Superglue,' 'Hey Luv,' and 'Wannabe' can be heard on the MTV sitcom 'Undressed'. A Black Vinyl release.

Customer Reviews:

One of the greatest bands!!!.......2006-07-01

I got the chance to see these guys live in the small town of Alamosa last April. I of course found them through myspace! I fell in love with their music and they were even better live. They have such a great stage presence...and they are really interested in meeting fans (my friends and I got to hang out with them for a while after the show). Their CDs are great!! This CD and "Sound Off" are a must have for people who are into the alternative genre. It is a good investment and band to put among your CD collection!

Better Than "Sound Off".......2006-04-18

I first saw the Chicago band The Dog & Everything play live in Omaha, Nebraska at the Ranch Bowl (now being torn down for a Wal Mart...gag) back in early 2002, not long after the indie release of Bandshell. It was this live performance by the Dog that made me a fan, and initially "The Book" was the song that convinced me to buy the album. A poor college student, I didn't have the $10 to cough up after the show, so I had to order it online. After the 2 week wait, I was not disapointed. "Hey Luv," a fan favorite, soon became a favorite of mine as well. "Wannabe," "Superglue" and "Cold So Fast" round out the album's best and most catchy tracks. Songs like "Purposely" and "Luck Alone" showcase the band's individuality. "The D&E" is a self-promotional half-assed rap-esque weird song that might leave you saying, "What?" The album could have done without that song, but regardless is an excellent addition to any indie rock collection.

This album spent many hours in my cd player throughout 2002. My friend John claims that it sounds like it was "recorded in someone's garage." However, it is this raw sound combined with Dan's vocals that give the album that little extra something that is always present in the Dog's live shows.

The success of "Hey Luv" made the band incredibly popular across the country, and I continued to see them play live over the next few years. Their next full length album "Sound Off" was a disapointment in comparison to "Bandshell," and only Dan & Auggie remain from the original line-up. If you're looking to check out the Dog & Everything, Bandshell is the album for you, but a live performance would be more enjoyable.

The Dog and Everything Rocks!.......2005-10-26

Augie, Jimmy, Dan, and Tommy, AND GREAT TUNES makes up this hott new band on the block. Strait from Chicago they have gone around touring the cities and becoming more and more popular. I personally have been keeping track of this band and have seen they're performances as well as hung with the band. They are sweethearts. "Bandshell" is a great album, a mix of pop and rock, it's a whole new sound in itself. Wannabe, Hey Love, The Book, and Superglue, have been some of the most popular tracks. Now they just came out with a whole new album "Sound Off". It became available July 10, 2004! If you loved Bandshell then this one will rock your socks. If it's even possible they managed to create and even better CD with more energy and meaning. It's no question this band is gonna make it big and they deserve it! And I love hangin out with them everytime I see them play.
To the Band: Love you guys!
