English Dogs - Invasion Of The Porky Men & The Metal Years


English Dogs are a British punk band, formed in October 1981 in Grantham and produced two demos during 1982, "Show No Mercy" and "Free To Kill".
In 1983 they signed to Clay Records and released a six-track EP in July 1983, "Mad Punx And English Dogs". English Dogs' first full-length album, "Invasion Of The Porky Men", was released a year later.
The change towards metal saw them leave Clay records to sign with Rot Records and release the decidedly metal tinged "To The Ends Of The Earth" EP in September 1984. The metal leanings increased with "Forward Into Battle", culminating with the "Metalmorphosis" 12-inch and "Where Legend Began" album in 1986.
Due to personnel changes the band split up in 1986.
The band re-formed several times since 1993.
