Barking Dogma

Barking DogAnother one of Kevyn Dymond's many bands for you here.  Shit I wish I could remember some more of his bands for you, but I did do a post on my favorite one, Drilling For Mom, a while back.  Barking Dogma has the Frank Zappa thing going on, which is interesting because Kevyn looked like Zappa in a wheel chair.  Zappa and Dogma are cool but I think they are more for those musicians out there.  I just don't have the musical backround to appreciate this stuff fully and I've long felt that was one of my (many) short commings.  I did play clarinet and saxophone but never really had the talent to get good.  I even tried to play drums in one band (just cymbal and snare), but I'm just not musically coordinated.  Now ping pong and video games are where my coordination's at, but I don't see how watching me do that would be entertaining to you.  Anyway, about Barking Dogma, it looks like you can get this whole cd here, but I already ripped it so you get it from me too.  There's an interesting article Kevyn wrote on underground cassettes for the Ebook, Cassette Mythos, here.  As I said Kevyn was in LOTS of bands and I actually found a cool site with one of his bands, Girth, posted here, here and another one here, here.  Now Kevyn Dymond was a big part of the scene up in Arcata as far as I remember and for all I know he may still be.  Maybe some of my bros that still live out there can comment in more detail about him.  This is not my favorite of his bands but you might find it good anyway.  All that's left is for you to groove to some Barking Dogma, so do it if you like. EDIT: So these uploads were lost when I stopped renting a server, but if'n y'all want to give this thing an audio gander let me know...
