Ankety Low Day by Tone Dogs Tone Dogs : Ankety Low Day.
Art-rock with a hard edge, surreal lyrics, odd meters and unusual instrumentation.


Tone Dogs were formed in 1987 as a collaboration between bass players Fred Chalenor, Amy Denio and recording engineer Drew Canulette. Denio and Chalenor thought a 2-bass band would be great, and began writing music together. Soon, they roped in other great musicians and friends on the recording - Matt Cameron of Soundgarden, Fred Frith and Hans Reichel from the European improvising scene, and others. Superbly recorded by Drew Canulette, this album received a nomination to be nominated (sic) for a "Best New Recording" Grammy award.
