Big Dogz

Nazareth

A gritty, no-frills return to blues-rock basics. McCafferty's legendary rasp sounds more weathered and honest than ever over bone-dry, heavy production.

It's Nazareth sounding like they recorded in your basement with a stack of vintage amps and a bottle of scotch.

A heavy, deliberate stomp through blues-rock territory with a defiant and weathered soul.

The production is pushed notably harder into dry intimate than this artist usually allows.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the opening riff of Big Dog’s Gonna Howl cuts through the silence with a dry, menacing bite.
The surprising vulnerability in Dan McCafferty's weathered rasp during the slower, bluesy crawl of Butterfly.
The rhythmic lock-step between the bass and drums on No Mean Monster that feels like a heavy machinery startup.
