Ok, Before you get turned off by the name of this band, I beg you to read the rest of the review. Theres plenty more to get turned off by other than that.
While the name Dogs Die in Hot Cars connotates some type of Satan worshiping, animal sacrificing, viking hard rock group, taking a quick listen to the CD will give you quite a surprise. Please Describe yourself is full of new wave guitars, keyboards, and probably haircuts that would make “Flock of Seagulls” jealous. All the tracks are very upbeat, somewhat dance-y and electric. My personal favorites include the single “I Love you cause I have to” and “Godhopping”.
The Lyrics are somewhat questionable. Why would anyone want Paul Newman’s eyes? I sat and wondered if they wrote this under the influence of some sort of drugs, just jotting down what ever words sounded good in a psychedelic haze. I’m pretty sure that they are genuinely fucked up.
If anything, they will always serve as a public reminder. Roll your windows down a bit so Spot can get some air!
