​The Corps
Dog Of War
Thousand Island Records
 
Eager to show off the new members from ATD, Blacked Out, and Bishop’s Green guitar man Morgan Farrell and also ATD, plus Little Fix and Whiskey River Gun Club’s bass player Dave Derksen, the Vancouver skate punk rockers offer Dog Of War. The Corps’ brand-new single is their first since the conscription of these new infantry members, so it’s bound to be a nerve wrenching slog through new and brazen territory. Based on a comic book theme, Dog Of War is Orion, Son of Darkseid. Raised by his enemy Highfather in a sibling swap with Scott Free, his own son, the manipulation of character by enemy forces can only reach so far. How far does it go?
 
An aggressive pulsing vocal opens the music with bursts of tune to fill the space between. A rush of fast drumming and guitars then burst in like a switched on lightbulb, high-speed riffs hammer in as the song continues with the hard-core style progression. Huge palm-muted riffs take over to change the gear, harmonising lead guitar leans in to top the tower of noise as catchy lyrics happily galivant all over the composition. Dog Of War from The Corps is a maniacal mosh-pit anthem that undoubtedly follows and is followed by many more.
