Do you remember the last band you legitimately discovered via Myspace? And I mean purely by clicking through people’s friends and top 8′s and shit, browsing for a good band — not just googling a band you’d heard of and checking out their myspace. Well, if you don’t, at least I do! Because, mainly, it was yesterday. This time I managed to click through and stumble upon London’s Wetdog. They’re a relatively new trio made up of Sarah, Billy and Rivka are, I guess, a band that haven’t found that much buzz yet, but in all liklihood will (comment on how shitty London’s music scene is reserved for later). Cynicism nonwithstanding, ‘Lower Leg’ off 2009′s Frauhaus! and now being re-released as a single is magical. The bassline and the vocals are funky, catchy as hell and strangely simple but wonderful little bit of post-punk ‘revivalism’ — I guarantee you’ll get this stuck in your head. Tip to make it more enjoyable: when the girls shout “Oh! Oh” do some sort of jazz hands movement. It’s awesome.
