More Info
Following their explosive arrival on the scene last year, London’s French Dogs make their highly anticipated debut on wax for Record Store Day 2026. Defined by a gritty, classic indie rock sound, the band pairs narrative-driven vocals with raw, timeless guitar work and a tight, high-energy rhythm section that captures the spirit of the modern UK underground. This 12” EP is a four-track snapshot of late nights and restless hearts, capturing the unfiltered energy that has already ignited the UK indie scene.
Since its digital launch on December 5th, the French Dogs EP has secured a strong national momentum. Critics have hailed the band as “one of the most exciting names heating up the UK underground” (The Songbird HQ), drawing comparisons to The Doors, The Verve, and Arctic Monkeys. Delivering a "rollercoaster of tracks that feels strikingly alive" (Good Music Radar), the release has been praised as “loud, and real... a debut that leaves you ready to shout along” (Illustrate Magazine).
Proving that “great riffs never go out of fashion” (The Big Takeover), French Dogs provide a “crisp but not clean” collection that “turns poor decisions into pure momentum” (Mystic Sons). They are a band “on fire... giving us the fervour you'd want to hear from a young band with a dream” (Sinusoidal Music), bottling frustration and heartbreak into something undeniably alive.
This RSD exclusive is the first-ever physical release for the band and is strictly limited to a small run of 500 units, with each sleeve individually hand-numbered on the back. This EP serves as the definitive preamble to the band's highly anticipated debut full-length album, scheduled for release in late May 2026
