Dog Is Dead: All of Our Favorite Stories

Shelby here! In our earlier post, we mentioned that we would be writing reviews and sharing our personal works of art on Peculiar Curls.

Today I wanted to bring everyone's attention to a bitchin' band, by the name of Dog Is Dead. Their innovative, catchy, and "indie-pop," tunes on their newest release, All Our Favorite Stories, will have you hooked.

All Our Favorite Stories opens with a down-tempo "Get Low," before picking up speed with its typical Dog Is Dead sound, "Do The Right Thing." All Our Favorite Stories is a collection of jazzy, poppy, and folksy rhythms, including the dancing-down-the-street jingle, "Glockenspiel Song," and the summer nights anthem, "Talk Through the Night." "River Jordan," is perhaps the darker side of All Our Favorite Stories, with a daunting melody. "Ricochet," transitions the album to a slower, more mellow pace, before slightly picking back up again with "Burial Ground." The album finishes with "Talent Show," and despite the 10% popularity bar on iTunes, the closing track really brings the album to closure.

Verdict: 4 out of 5 stars

To sum it up, All Our Favorite Stories is a beautiful treasury of songs you won't be able to shake out of your head. Be sure to pick that up as soon as you have the chance!
