HAUNT DOG Brings Basement Show Nostagia On ‘Filbert’ Out 9/3
HAUNT DOG Brings Basement Show Nostagia On ‘Filbert’
FFO: 95COROLLA, The Casper Fight Scene, and Kerosene Heights
Haunt Dog’s new album – Filbert – is out on 9/3 and is a must listen for those who are nostalgic for basement shows of yesteryears.
Filbert hearkens back to a sound lost in Philly basements 10 years ago without any of the staleness you might find from the spilt beer in the corner. While there’s an air of familiarity from the occasional twinkling riff and trademark strained vocal delivery, the constant propulsion and contorting chord changes never allow you to fully settle.
With nine tracks clocking in at a breakneck pace of 24 minutes, Filbert slams on the gas pedal and doesn’t let up. A fully realized debut from your new favorite band.
Philadelphia’s hidden favorite scraggly-emo supergroup quartet. A beer-with-your-dinner type band.

About “Mug”
“It’s time to dip your toes in a world of feeling second-rate for no logical reason. Kick your feet up, crack open a frosty root beer, and reflect on that embarrassing thing you did in grade school that one time.”
About “Calico”
“On Calico, Haunt Dog grabs you by the scruff of your neck, spins you around until you’re sick and finally lets you go a dizzied heap on the floor. Delivered with a sense of urgency seemingly only found in the Philly basements Haunt Dog has crawled out of, the track effortlessly transitions from panicked 3 chord punk to an elegant ballroom emo without losing a shred of the intensity it starts with.”
