Dogmatics




A Boston-based alternative band, the Dogmatics never saw any significant or even minor success. They only released 2 albums on Homestead, and one self-released single.

The band was formed by brotehrs Peter (vocals) and Paul (bass) O'Halloran, and lifelong friend Jerry Lehane (guitar), as well as 2 different drummers in their five year career, Tommy Long the most notable as he played on all of the bands released material.

While the band had some influence over the Boston alternative scene, their career was cut short when Paul died in a motorcycle accident. The band broke-up, and became all but forgotten over the years.

They could be characterized by their strong wit, introspective lyrics, and noted rockabilly and hardcore punk influences. Here's a track listing for the mix:

1. Sister Serena
2. Mtv O.D.
3. King Size Cigarette
4. Gimme the Shakes
5. Pussy Whipped
6. Teenage Lament
7. Saturday Night Again
8. Drinking By the Pool
9. Thayer St.
10. Tell Me
11. Rockabilly Ramble
12. Sex Bomb
