Sniffer Dog

SD

Review by Neil St.Laurent

Thanks to the band for the Cassette


This 2-song demo from a band called "Sniffer Dog" out of Italy is an energetic collection of raw metal. Combining crunchy riffing with driving rhythms, Sniffer Dog enters itself into the power metal scene, but with a little heavier edge. The Vocals of RobK are deep and harsh, often borderline with typical death vocals, but always retaining their sharp grating surface. Rather than desiring to be a stereotyped band, the second song "In Colpa" ventures into the realm of punk and despite the vocals being totally unintelligable, it provides us with a very catchy chorus without losing it's hardline approach.

"SD", a title which is derived from the liner and likely not the correct one, is a short, but suitable, introduction to this band. A demo that clearly shows musical prowess and originality.

Sniffer Dog is:
RobK - Vocals, Keyboard
MaX - Guitars, Bass, Keyboard
Orietta - Drums
