REVIEW – Returning with a remastered version of their 2006 album ‘Walk With Me’, DOG EAT DOG are bringing their signature blend of crossover elements—punk, metal, and hip-hop—back to the forefront with modern production updates. Due on September 20th, this 2024 remaster reminds fans why the New Jersey legends have remained influential for over three decades.
The album opens with “Showtime”, a high-energy anthem that invites listeners to throw their fists in the air and lose themselves in the music. “Hell Yeah!” continues the momentum with groove-laden rhythms that are both fun and infectious. Tracks like “Undivided” delve deeper, with emotional vocals and crunchy riffs that showcase the band’s ability to blend intensity with melody.
The title track, “Walk With Me”, is a standout moment on the album. It starts with a slow jazz intro before launching into a mix of crunchy riffs and emotional vocals, enveloping the listener in the band’s dynamic sound. “MILF” brings a fast-paced, punk-infused rhythm, while “ESB” ventures into punk rock with reggae influences, demonstrating DOG EAT DOG‘s knack for genre-blending.
The remastered version of “My Frustration” offers pounding drums and thumping bass, capturing the raw energy of the band’s live performances. As the album progresses, tracks like “Summertime” and “Cannonball” provide moments of reflection, before the album closes with “Dark Secret” and “Fun Lovin'”, both filled with crunchy riffs and thundering rhythms, ensuring that the album ends with the same energy with which it began.
DOG EAT DOG has a reputation for infusing their sound with a range of genres, and this remastered release continues to highlight the band’s ability to create music that is both fresh and rooted in the legacy of crossover.
