*****
Entirely self-produced and mostly recorded live, Some Dogs think their name is no is a mix between orchestral, cinematic soundscapes, and full-on thumping delta blues tracks. Most of the lyrics in the album have an underlying theme of battling with and against self-control (how to fly a plane through turbulence without spilling your coffee) and that’s where the album name ’Some Dogs Think Their Name is No’ is coming from.
