HEY BULLDOG – SINGLE REVIEW


Hey Bulldog – California (Doing it to Death
Hey Bulldog - California
Records/Sister 9 Recordings)

Release Date: 28th June 2019

What do you get if you cross the intense energy of Fungus, the heavy riffage of Black Sabbath and the raw, gang mentality of the Ramones? Something pretty close to Mancunian trio Hey Bulldog, that’s what. The band’s new single, ‘California’, kicks off with the kind of drums you’d expect Tommy Lee to bash out as a morning warm up before the heavy riffs join in, only pausing occasionally to spit some licks out into the mix. It is the permanently throbbing, Lemmy-esque bass line that gives this one it’s meat, however, and without that meat you’re looking at a completely different sandwich, my friend. Completely different.
