Werecats - Dog
Harmony ridded pop punk from the mean streets of south London today. Werecats are catchy and look as though butter wouldn't melt in their mouths, it's all good wholesome family entertainment yeah? Kind of, but scratch the surface and you'll maybe find something a little darker. An example being today's song which is about man's best friend, the cute old family dog. But what's that? "blood in my mouth, rabbit's history......my teeth are now buried, deep inside it's throat..." Hmmm hidden depths indeed.
Featuring members of The Pukes, The Murderburgers, The Blankheads and Soon The Darkness, Werecats are a female fronted 4 piece who've recently released their debut album. Titled Destined For The Outside, it's a joy. The video you'll find below is great but in my opinion the album contains several other songs that are even better. Opener, Astbury is a particularly upbeat favourite, next song, Builder is another winner whilst Strawberries is a juicy pick and Mr Boring is more infectious than measles.

So to the video, bright and bouncy but with bite, this is Dog...
I've never got the whole pop punk thing. Majority of it just sounds like shit I'd pass on to find better punk bands. Just sayin'. Cheers + 1 beer (tonight!) from PDX!
