It was a dark and stormy night. We were standing on the deck. The ship was sinking. The captain said to me: 'Tell me a story my son'; and so I began...
This week's Kennel District at Underground @ Baker Place features the much-touted Limerick-based riff guzzling trio Sea Dog.
Made up of Ivan, Damien and Scott, two-thirds of the band are originally from the mythical lands of Kenmare, but relocated to Limerick some years ago to hone their skills as expert disco dancers. With this achieved by 2006, a decision was made to form a band, probably not with the clearest of vision. Thankfully for Sea Dog, Nintendo's Wii had yet to come on market, allowing them the necessary time to jam.
These jams resulted in a series of guitar-laden flurries that came across so catchy that you could find yourself humming them in the bathroom the whole time. While the pop sassiness of JoJo, Beyonce and Aaliyah may have been on in the background of their practice sessions, the instrumental music that came out infused the might of Thin Lizzy, The F**king Champs, some catchy grunge, metal, eighties cheese and psychedelic reverberations.
As a result, people started ringing their phones. Generally they only got the voicemail, but soon Sea Dog would start returning calls. This led to extremely well received appearances with Dublin post-rock heroes The Redneck Manifesto, Californian noisy psych outfit Comets on Fire, and drone lords Sunn O))), amongst many others. Soon, even notorious chin-strokers started to raise their fists in joy at Sea Dog shows.
In such a short space of time, Sea Dog have earned a reputation as the kind of noisy rock outfit you'd love to play at a party. They play one this week, and it's for free at Baker Place.
