Album Notes & Community Reviews

Signaling a definitive departure from their psychedelic pop origins, 'Dog of Two Head' cements the foundational boogie-rock sound that would sustain the band for decades. The album features propulsive, rhythmic guitar work and a remarkably raw, no-nonsense approach to heavy blues.
