Review of Dogs Die In Hot Cars 'Godhopping' single - Tiscali Music Reviews

Single release date: 26th April 2004

Dogs Die In Hot Cars are, quite simply, the finest band to emerge from Scotland since the magnificent Orange Juice.

Their blend of perfect pop and knowing lyrics is absolutely astonishing; mix in the ability to create some of the most memorable choruses in existence and the voice of the magnetic Craig Macintosh and you're talking possibly the best new band in Britain (step aside Franz Ferdinand).

'Godhopping' is the first single proper (following on from the sublime limited EPS 'I Love You Cause I Have To' and 'Man Bites Man') and further consolidates the NME's claim that they are, "one of the most exciting bands in the U.K.".

An irresistible slab of indie-pop, it is destined to propel the band into the big time.

"...catchy eccentric pop - the ditties are so full of hooks, interesting clutter and melodies that linger" The Guardian

"clever, emotive pop - a great band" Rock Sound
