***

Founded in the early 90-ties by SULO and BOBBY LEE FETT (later also member of THE HELLACOPTERS) in small town Katrineholm, DIAMOND DOGS started to set new standards for rocking entertainment. In 1996 after four albums DIAMOND DOGS took a break, but woke up like the Sleeping Beauty right in time for the new millennium.

 

Their latest album full-length album “BLACK RIVER ROAD” is named after Svartbäcksvägen, the street in Katrineholm where Bobby Lee Fett grew up. “BLACK RIVER ROAD” has been celebrated by critics in Spain (Popular 1), UK (Kerrang!), Germany (Visions Mag, Rock Hard) and Scandinavia.

 

The album was recorded in November 2003 in STUDIO 301, Solna (Stockholm), where many classical recordings have been made over the years by ABBA (“The Album”), Europe, (“Final Countdown”), Neneh Cherry & Youssou N’Dour (“Seven Seconds “), to mentioned a few. The studio is also familiar territory to DIAMOND DOGS since the recording of the album “AS YOUR GREENS TURN BROWN” in 2000. Mixed in TRAXTON RECORDINGS by the sound engineer Christian Edgren.

 

Among the featured guests we find NICKE ANDERSSON from THE HELLACOPTERS, who has written and recorded the song “GOTTA BE GONE (IT’S ALRIGHT)” with Sulo, MATTIAS BÄRJED from THE SOUNDTRACK OF OUR LIVES who played beautiful western guitars on the opening track “COME AWAY”, “RUSH FOR COMFORT” and “SPARE ME THE LAST JOKE”.

“SPARE ME THE LAST JOKE” is also the result of a co-writing session with Sulo and RANDY BACHMAN from BACHMAN TURNER OVERDRIVE and GUESS WHO, and Canadian singer/songwriter DENISE McCANN.

 

The band have always attracted great musicians who share a love for rock ’n’ roll and boogie, and DIAMOND DOGS have a well-earned reputation as one of Scandinavia’s best live bands, coming from numerous gigs around Europe, including both headlining tours and supporting bands like NAZARETH, THE DAMNED and HANOI ROCKS.
