Happy International Dog Day! To celebrate this adorable and noble holiday, we thought we’d have a little fun and fetch some of our favorite “dog” songs you should listen to today.
(Get it? Dog…fetch? Fine! They can’t all be winners.)
Anyway, here are eight “Dog” rock songs in honor of International Dog Day.
Carnal and raw, it’s The Stooges is their purest form.
Technically not a “dog” song, but how could we really keep Temple of the Dog off this list?
An underrated track from AC/DC’s 'Let There Be Rock.' In fact, after listening to all these “dog” songs, just go listen to Let There Be Rock. Your day will be better for it.
A mainstay on Flogging Molly’s setlist, one listen and we already want to start pre-gaming for St. Patrick’s Day.
“Peace Dog” can be found on 1987’s Electric, which is so underrated it’s practically criminal. Fun fact: Electric was produced by Rick Rubin. You can thank us for that factoid later when it eventually helps you win a game of pub trivia.
It takes a lot of guts to cover David Bowie, but Beck’s moody rendition of “Diamond Dogs” from the 'Moulin Rouge' soundtrack is a killer.
With a groove like this, no wonder it can be found on their album called 'Death By Sexy.'
Can you think of a more badass way to end this list? Didn’t think so.
