Heavy Denver

You might think abstractly of tvfordogs as "the next Foo Fighters." But that would be to sell this ground-breaking outfit short of their place in the pantheon of compelling British rock acts. Although you might hear enticing snippets of Dave Grohl or Coldplay in the alchemy, you'll soon detect an undeniably personal view of our postmodern world. And you'll drop your drink. And then you'll be along for the ride.
Customer Review: Fabulous C.D
Brilliant album, definately worth buying.Watch out for Mark Homer, he's an amazing bass guitarist and the most talented of the group. I love this band, they rule my life!! Great.
Customer Review: Buy buy buy
This album simply rocks,but its not the typical 'rockers' album. Album incorporates, a lot of 'groove' ('FAQ') and accessibility to tracks without the yawn of predictability that's found in popular music today. Then there are surprising moments like 'Emergence', where intense but subtle classical influences bring a trance-like ebb to the flow of poetic lyricism and and hard jammin' guitar. Neil Luckett's vocals are compelling and refreshing. Just get it!


Many of our baby names come from the gods and goddesses of the ancient Romans and Greeks. For example, Iris was the goddess of the rainbow, Martin comes from Mars, the god of war. And Flora was the goddess of flowers.

Some baby names come from place names of the gods. Cynthia, for instance, comes from "Kynthos," the mountain birthplace of Artemis, goddess of the hunt and her twin, Apollo, god of wild animals.
