Albums :
Doomdogs debut album "DoomDogs" was released in February 2010 by Doomentia Records (CD/CD-digi) and High Roller Records (Vinyl LP).
The bands second album "Unleash The Truth" was released September 2011 by Doomentia Records (CD, CD-book and double Vinyl LP).
Both albums were recorded at Grand Recordings studio (Gothenburg) on professional analog units of 24 tracks on 2-inch tape (to achieve that slightly raw and lovely warm analog sound) and then mixed down to ¼ inch tapes just to get that old analogue vibe and to get the tape compression you get from recording and mixing on tapes.
"DoomDogs" were engineered/mixed by Sven Jensen (Grand Recordings) and produced by Sven Jensen and Doomdogs and mastered by Göran Finnberg/The Mastering Room.
"Unleash The Truth" were engineered/mixed by Sven Jensen and produced by Sven Jensen and Doomdogs and mastered by Michel Thorén/Studio Fabriken (except the songs "Legacy" and "A National Acrobat" that were recorded/mixed by Doomdogs at Bergatrollet Studio).
