Overall Turn Against This Land is a raw and powerful debut from an exciting band who while they have gained some NME.
Making their voices heard. A thriving scene currently commanded in the mainstream by bands such as Arctic Monkeys has sprung up, dredging up with it working class tales of unemployment, boredome, the grey blocks of a housing estate and cockney rhyming slang. In this at least, the Dogs are no different: a five piece gang of youths shouting out catchy post-punk anthems in the mould of the Clash of the Jam with such poetic lines as 'I'm a sick and shrunken soul in a drunken body' shouted out in a loud abrasive south london way. In typical indie fashion too, Turn Against this Land is raw and energetic- a direct contrast to such acts as the Kaiser Chiefs. And yet like the Kaiser Chiefs, the Dogs have the ability to get a hook lodged in your head for days on end. It is also noticable that the Dogs, unlike many Indie acts actually make use of two guitarists, dishing out subtle harmonies and fills like there is no tomorrow.
The bass though is strictly kept as a rhythm instrument often using simple root notes, also in the louder, more raw tracks it is often lost in translation.

Drums are fairly simple but effective and the Dogs have an undeniably relentless rhythm section, keeping you dancing the whole way. The vocals are a strong point for Dogs with Cooke providing a raw and passionate performance throughout. From first track London Bridge, it is clear that Turn Against this Land stands out from the mire of bands in this scene. Opening modestly with a rather annoying sample it suddenly breaks in wailing harmonised guitars and bass moving together in an almost Thin Lizzy-esque way to create a Big Ben bells riff. Then, suddenly the song kicks in with a modest but catchy bass line and the sort of 'oomtss' drumming that it is almost impossible not to dance to.
The song continues in this way with a loud raw chorus keeping you moving all the way. The album continues with Selfish Ways which is pretty good, involving a catchy guitar riff.
The chorus opens up with a classic line: 'Darling I'll bring you flowers but I'll burn your house down', which while fairly corny I'll admit is one of those lines that simply lodges in your head. Once more Dogs continue their frantic pace and the driving noise of an angry youth. Donkeys is certainly a standout track on the album. It is less energetic but actually pretty good songwriting. It's lack of a defined hook is it's downside, but it's one of those songs that really grows on you.
