The Diamond Dogs are awesome.

You like The Diamond Dogs? Because I think they're awesome.

 

"He he he, hi there."

 No, I'm not referencing David Bowie, I'm talking about the Swedish rock group, The Diamond Dogs.

 If you don't know them, consider yourself lucky that you have like 14 albums to discover. Some may be harder to find than others. Damn livin' in the USA, sometimes...

They may be a bit hard describe, but I'd say that a mix of 70's Southern Rock with Motley Crue and Guns N Roses when they're in a ballad-y mood would be somewhere in the ballpark. Even if that doesn't help you, just take my word for it that they play some good old fashioned Rock N Roll, and you should enjoy it.

I'm a big fan of Swedish music in general. They really like their hard metal, and they really like their Rock N Roll and I really like them. The Diamond Dogs are somewhat of a Swedish supergroup, boasting many members, past and present, who played in other need-to-know Swedish rock outfits such as The Hellacopters and The Soundtrack of Our Lives.

If you're looking for some new rock to listen to,  I'd try The Diamond Dogs. They just put out really quality albums and have a great feel. I'm usually pleasantly surprised when one of their songs shows up on my iPod's shuffle.

Don't say I never gave you anything...

Enjoy!

Keep stopping back for more Rock & Soul!
