The Rock-it Dogs

about

THE ROCK-IT DOGS WAS COCIEVED SOMETIME IN 2002. THE BRAINCHILD OF THREE FREINDS, ALL FROM DIFFERENT BANDS AND BACKGROUNDS BUT WITH ONE COLLECTIVE PURPOSE.........TO ROCK! THIS ORIGINAL CONCOCTION OF MUSICAL MALFORMATIES CONSISTED OF BROUGHTON HACKETT, BIG DANNY-O AND BOB-KAT. THEY STARTED A BAND DECIDING TO PULL INFLUENCES FROM ALL THE MUCICALL STYLES THEY WERE INTO; ROCKABILLY/PSYCHOBILLY, PUNK, JAZZ, SURF, SKA AND OF COURSE, DODGY HORROR B-MOVIES THEY PLAYED A BUNCH OF SHOWS AND RECORDED A CRAPPY 8 TRACK MINI ALBUM AND THEN BOB LEFT THE BAND. THE GUYS QUICKLY FOUND HIS REPLACEMENT IN VINCENT BLACKSHADOW AND BEGAN REHERSING OLD MATERIAL WITH HIM WITH THE PLAN BEING TO WRITE A BUNCH OF NEW SONGS. MORE SHOWS FOLLOWED AND NEW SONGS CAME ROLLING IN, THIS TIME WITH A FASTER, MORE PUNCHY SOUND. THEN CAME ANOTHER, SLIGHTLY LESS CRAPPY 8 TRACK (BOTH HAVING BEEN RECORDED IN HACKETT'S BASEMAENT) WHICH WAS SENT TO EUROPE. THE PEOPLE AT CRAZY LOVE RECORDS LIKED THE BAND, AND DECIDED TO SIGN THEM UP! SINCE THE RECORDING AND RELEASE OF 'CHILLS, THRILLS AND BLOOD SPILLS', THE ROCK-IT DOGS HAVE PARTED WAYS WITH BIG DANNY-O, ONLY TO MAKE WAY FOR NEW SLAPPER FRANKLYN STEIN. THE BAND CONTINUE TO GO FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH PLAYING UP AND DOWN THE UK INFECTING CROWDS AT EVERY SHOW WITH THEIR OWN BLEND OF PSYCHO, PUNKABILLY AND SKA. WATCH OUT FOR THEM IN A TOWN NEAR YOU SOON! User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
