Album Review

Because it introduced itself to U.S. audiences by way of a hug felt 'round the world (check out the heavily downloaded video to first single "All the Same"), it's hard to think of Sick Puppies as all that sick. But the Australian band's approach to music is hard and swift, and its fully unbuttoned songs reach toward hard rock's metal edges with intelligence and something like grace. While "Cancer" arrives at a not unlikable growly place, "What Are You Looking For" unravels the kind of pretty melodicism that wouldn't sound completely wrong on a Coldplay disc. "All the Same," meanwhile, is an energetic love song that, explicitness aside, should translate across the generations, and "Deliverance" dabbles in the kind of angsty post-punk you might expect to find on a My Chemical Romance disc. The Puppies are hard-chargers — they get into a song and work it up in a way that seems distinctly American. Count on Dressed Up as Life scoring as many converts here as the red-hot-at-home Puppies have down under.

Customer Reviews

Wow!!
     

I really like this band, the lyrics are powerful. If anyone has had a semi-tough time in their lives the lyrics will really speak to you. I suggest you buy the whole album though, just their single doesn't do them justice. Support this band!!!

....WOW
     

this is the first band in a while to really excite me. they are not revolutionary or innovative, but they do alternative hard rock better than 99% of the bands out there today. they understand song writing and they really connect with the listeners. Sick Puppies are going to be a major success in the future. every single song on this album is great.

My New Favorite Album
     

I was hooked at the Sick Puppies EP, and the album does not let down. Unlike the EP, a lot of songs show the harder side of Sick Puppies. You'll have this album on loop for weeks. Why listen to anything else when you can have sick puppies?

Biography

Formed: 1997 in Sydney, Australia

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '90s, '00s

With a name like Sick Puppies, you wouldn't think hugs would play a major role in the gutsy indie crew's rise to fame, but they do, along with malls and the video-sharing site YouTube. When they met in 1997, singer/lead guitarist Shimon Moore and bassist Emma Anzai were both fans of Silverchair and the Living End plus many of the other angst rock/punk rock bands from their native Australia. Soon Chris Mileski joined on drums and a series of live gigs led to some local recognition and the 1999 EP...
