Примечание: Diamond Dogs - The first 10 years reissued! Record label Wild Kingdom is re-releasing Diamond Dogs first 5 classic Long-Players (1993 - 2003). Produced by Tomas Skogsberg and Diamond Dogs. Including the singles and EPs from the same period. Diamond Dogs, Swedish rock group, formed in 1991 in Katrineholm, S?dermanland. From the very beginning hugely influenced by British Early 1970s R&B rock like Rod Stewart and The Faces, Frankie Miller, Dr Feelgood etc. After making highly acclaimed demo tapes with producer Max Martin the band took its time carefully considering various offers of contracts, and ultimately a record deal was signed with Avance Records. All members moved to Stockholm upon finding fame in 1992 and debut album Honked was recorded in Sunlight Studio with inimitable producer Tomas Skogsberg. The first single "Blue Eyes Shouldn’t Be Cryin’" came out in 1993 and made its way to rotation on MTV's Headbangers Ball etc. Through constant touring, Diamond Dogs soon built a large reputation for their energetic live shows, with the charismatic and dynamic stage antics singer Sulo, as well as its innovative use of the piano as a lead rock instrument, The Duke of Honk is a pioneer in sound and style for gritty rock'n'roll keyboards. S?ren 'Sulo' Karlsson is also the main songwriter, and Henrik 'The Duke of Honk' Widen serves as the group's principal producer. Keeping busy the better part of the 1990s playing live shows, Diamond Dogs was contracted on new label with worldwide distribution in 1999. The group recorded their second long player As Your Greens Turn Brown in SAE Studios, Stockholm. It was released in March 2001. First single "Goodbye Miss Jill" got a fair bit of airplay, and already being known as one of rock's most dynamic stage performers, Diamond Dogs started to earn a sizable following. After spending the early part of 2001 on the road with an active touring schedule, the band went back into the Sunlight Studio with Tomas Skogsberg and recorded their third album Too Much Is Always Better.. ..Than Not Enough, released in 2002, which yielded a hit single "Bound To Ravage". Later that year the group embraced their never ending touring, doing small clubs, playing festivals and concert halls, either headlining or opening for artists as eclectic as The Cult, Nazareth, Ian Hunter, Hanoi Rocks, The Damned, The Quireboys, Dan Baird/Georgia Satellites, Sensational Alex Harvey Band etc. In 2005 Diamond Dogs supported Nazareth's UK tour, later in a big interview legendary Nazareth singer Dan McCafferty expressed his admiration for their stage sharing fellow Swedes, he said: "Back in the days we played with The Faces many times, they had both good nights and bad nights on stage believe me, due to which shape the lads were in I guess, but Diamond Dogs remind me of The Faces when they had a good night." Diamond Dogs have over the years created a reputation as one of the best live acts in Europe, and their shows is often stretched out to over 3 hours! This year in May Diamond Dogs will yet another time return to where it all started, to Tomas Skogsberg and the Sunlight Studio, to start recording the 13th Diamond Dogs Long-Player
