Take cover, here’s a multidimensional guitar attack incoming.

Call it garage-y country punk or funky blues rock, but whatever the label, it’s tough, loud, and gleefully out of control. Louisville, Kentucky’s Black Dog Otis return with their sophomore full-length, Fire Hazard, a record that sounds bigger, dirtier, and more combustible than anything that came out these weeks. Built on dueling guitars and potent vocals, these twelve songs revel in breaking things and burning gear (true story: My Casiotone Died For Your Sins), chasing fast cars, throwing fists, flirting with devils, and spiraling into druggy detours. Roll the windows down and let it scorch.

Fire Hazard—produced by Seth Everhart—is out now digitally and on vinyl LP. Featuring Brian Hughes (vocals, harp, handclaps), Tony Feltner (guitar, vibraphone, backup vocals), Gene Brock (guitar), D. Jay Rice (guitar), Seth Everhart (guitar), Ashleigh Bills (bass, backup vocals), and Keith Raines (drums, percussion, backup vocals, keys), with Matthew Zoeller (backup vocals) and Avia Brock (backup vocals, banjo).
