REVIEWS FOR SOME SONGS E.P...."Squaredog are a three piece from Bradford that have a back to basics approach to music. First write yourself a selection of good songs. Set up a recording studio in your cellar, work the music about a bit and lo and behold you've got "Some Songs". Yes it can be that simple. "Some Songs" works very well. It's not formulaic, each song has it's own distinct personality and whilst there are touches that you think you might have heard before, you can't quite place it and anyway you enjoyed it at the time. Squaredog have produced a good honest ep that simply says listen."....(FATEA/Cambridge And beyond...www.fatea-records.co.uk)
