the MATT MCCOURT/,WILD DOGS DOWN AND DIRTY by Veronica DeMonica Metal Demons magazine Nov 2004

Rreturn to Headbangers ball with the master of excess matt mccourt rompin through the seedy back streets and back seats of party town, gamblin, cruisin for women,drinkin all night, watchin the game and old skool rock star charisma the album focuses on the fun stuff in life during a very tense turn in our nation's history something that the boys in the desert can dream about when they get done doin their thing in the sand. each song has a unique story behind it and shows matt mccourt's evolution as a serious songwriter, and storyteller. as well as a talented guitaist that has been frquently discounted since he put it down during the early wild dogs to pursue his role as the showman

which sometimes takes precendence over his uniquely imperfect style that boils with the sound of Real Rock as mccourt says "if rock n roll were meant to be perfect and precise, chuck berry would have been Pat Boone and we'd have long since quit listening if anything this cd takes you back to the music that great metal of the 80's was mined from. Kiss, alice, Ted Nugent, Jimi Hendrix,Van Halen,Montrose, Judas Priest, Saxon, which makes me wanna party all nite and rock and roll every day...just like we used to do and hopefully our newest genration of headbangers will revive the trend of getting a bunch of beer and heading out to a park to get wiped out and hang out iwth all of your friends blasting the aforementioned bands in rapid succession

watchin the game, down and dirty, be who you are, are our faves the albun is non stop rock

we recieeved the first incarnation of this cd and like this configuration much better and the addition of mattision avenoo as producer always kicks up the heat a notch the one man mccourt trusts in that position, Avenoo an accomplished musician, teacher, is also a movie producer and televison special producer which is how he and mccourt teamed up many years ago at a cable access production faclility in Portland Oregon/ as the bio reeads, mattison has also performed as a comedian and variety show host on satelite and cable systems throughout the usa.

cover girl Jaty monique is quite the treat to lok at considering teh last few wild dogs releases have been photos of them and compared to this- NOT as appealing. Katy is an Italian actress living in Roma and hosts teh us metal wacken open air special on the newly formed Euro metal division of MCCOMA ENTERTAINMENT. sample this cd at http://www.cdbaby.com/wilddogs4.html
