The title, Pawnshop Masterpiece, evokes the image of skimming through the CD pile at Guelph?s City Pawnbrokers or Busters and finding a disc from some band you've never heard of. The cover looks interesting, the song titles are whimsy, but you know not what type of music lay within nor if it?s any good. So what do you get with the Overdogs? To put it simply: think about what Great Big Sea would sound like if they went punk and I think you?ll begin to hear the picture. This album is fast-paced with driving rhythms and dance worthy beats; the perfect music for Thursday nights at the bar with a group of chums looking to have a good time. Not only are the Overdogs hard rocking but they?re lyrical masters as well; wizards with a pen and paper that manage to get their point across with an economy of verse. You wish your own garage band was ever this good.
