    After five full-length albums, Shame, Shame finds Dr. Dog far from having exhausted their creativity, sounding more passionate and frenzied than ever on what is a lasting testament to their showmanship and remarkably consistent songwriting.

    This is still a Dr. Dog album and it's bound to put a smile on your face. These guys have a real knack for making classic-sounding rock & roll and Shame, Shame is the sound of a fine band really hitting its stride.

    Though Shame, Shame succeeds more than it fails, it also exposes how difficult it's going to be for Dr. Dog to truly create a masterpiece. [Sping 2010, p.69]

    A bit of a grower, but probably their best album yet. Unbearable why, where'd all the time go... the title track, each and every song is a welcome addition to their repertoire.… Expand

    Good garage band stuff. The songs are a little unformed and not catchy, but you have to admire their energy.
