Dead Dog On The Highway Tab

by Sons Of Freedom



A rather obscure band and album, relased in 1988.  Canadian...  from
Vancouver.

If you're into crunchy guitar, thumpy bass, and loud heavy rhythm,
give these guys a listen...  especially if you are also into the
Jesus Lizard.  The first release is best:  Sons of Freedom.

Ciao.
