Lou Dog High Speed Secrets (Home Brew Jams)

Comparisons to the Velvet Underground may come easy when listening to�Strangled By The Same�, the opening track on High Speed Secrets.But they would be inaccurate. While that track�s chord progression might bear a strong resemblance to �Heroin�, the delivery is much closer to Roky Erickson�s anguished version of the song than the Velvet�s original.This is not art school music.

If there is a flaw on High Speed Secrets, it is that Dog�s lyrics tend to be cumbersome at times. There is a certain beauty in space and Dog rarely leaves any. When he does, like on �She�s Like The Sea,� theresults are stunning.

A home-grown recording which alternates between the pop/psych leanings ofearly Pink Floyd and fuzz drenched primal rock, High Speed Secretsshould appeal to music fanatics that prefer music created in a garagerather than in Andy Warhol�s art factory. It certainly did to me.

Grade: B
