Review: Dog Is Dead, Rescue Rooms

Nottingham-based Dog Is Dead were charged with playing to the half-filling Rescue Rooms as OK Go's rent-an-act, but their performance warranted a higher slot.

Their adventurous take on British indie impressed, with their frenetic harmonising reminiscent of the Futureheads.

The addition of the saxophone to give the nu-jazz effect worked wonders as this five-piece ploughed through thirty minutes of their own material. It can only be a matter of time until these boys have their own opening act.
