The gritty, desert atmosphere evokes images of renegades under the blazing sun, exposing the band’s deep roots in Americana.
The song captures the essence of outlaw rock, tinged with folk influences, setting the tone for a journey through diverse musical landscapes.
The EP takes a swift turn with “Drag and Drop,” a groovier track laced with ’80s influences. It features a more upbeat, funky vibe before subtly returning to the desert rock flavor toward the end, especially in the bridge.
It’s a track that showcases the band’s ability to shift moods while maintaining cohesion.
The title track, “Everybody Needs a Dog,” stands out as the highlight of the EP. The raw emotion in the vocal delivery is reminiscent of Johnny Cash’s Hurt, blending vulnerability with power.
The haunting atmosphere, combined with guitar solos that carry a Knopfler-esque touch, creates a unique listening experience.
Closing the EP is “Future,” a bold and avant-garde track that starts with an almost tribal chant, only to morph into something entirely different.
A voice, reminiscent of an oracle on a radio broadcast, narrates as the song unravels in unpredictable directions.
The track’s visionary composition calls to mind the experimental nature of Pink Floyd, making it a song that demands multiple listens to catch all its nuances.
