Groop Dogdrill make one helluva lot of noise for just three blokes from Doncaster (home to many a great band). They do not make relaxing, soothing music. Not in any way. Groop Dogdrill play dirty rock 'n' roll as it SHOULD be played - loud, sleazy and violent!
It was largely the band's support slot with The Wildhearts last Christmas that gained them their deserved attention in the music press. I'd certainly not noticed Kerrang! or Metal Hammer mention them previously.
There've been three singles so far, the first two of which, Gentleman's Soiree and Gracelands, came out on EXP Records. The latest single, Lovely Skin, which'll be released on 15th September 1997, is on Mantra Recordings. The single after that will probably be Jackie O, but there is no release date set, although it could be early next year.
