"Lifestyles of The Rich & Famous" with: Sewn Leather & DJ Dog Dick (Dog Leather)



Essentially a backyard "super-group" formed by 2 über-creative Baltimore solo artists: Griffin Pyn Sewn Leather and Max Eisenberg DJ Dog Dick... Dog Leather somehow manage(s) to seamlessly blend the all too familiar sounds of Hip-Hop, Punk, and Grunge. Sampled genre elements are then chopped, mashed, and melded against the [long-forgotten] D.I.Y. audio traits of Noise-Pop, Horrorcore, and so on.
I think that the 2 tracks presented here, effectively show both ends of the spectrum - This concerning Dog Leather's overall sound. To call their debut album for Ehse Records (Greezy Man and Stinky Man Meets Smutty Ranks on Tarantula Hill) an "experience," would be dangerously mis-guided and thereby not recommended. "Do Gleat Her," an airy Pop-filled [loose] love ballad is about as close to "mainstream" as Dog Leather will ever get; While "TROLL SPRAY" is another sort of un-hinged, Noisy animal entirely! Greezy Man and Stinky Man [...] is now available over @ Ehse Records, in a variety of audio file formats ranging from $0-15.
