Celebrating it's tenth birthday in 2022 is A Giant Dog Fight, the Texas group's hard-to-find debut album, remixed, remastered, and pressed on green vinyl just for the occasion. All the trademark tenets of AGD lore are on display at the jump monstrously adorable album art and punny title, whip-smart songwriting dolled up in denim and leather, boiled down to the sweetest moments and blown out to the masses with bravado to spare. Upon Fight's original , the local Austin Chronicle raved InchThe raucous, low-rent squall quakes with affirmative abandon, while a just-right dose of pop girds the buzz and yowl.

Vinyl LP pressing includes . Forging their friendships in the crucible of their Houston, TX, high school, Sabrina Ellis (vocals), Andrew Cashen (vocals, guitar), -and Orville Neeley (drums) first got their start covering AC/DC, The Ramones, Joan Jett, and the finer points of the Back to the Future soundtrack at school dances under the band name Youth In Asia.

Andrew hurls himself from the summit of the speaker stack. Graham's headbanging clobbers anything close to him. The audience rages, asses shake, and everyone leaves drenched in beer and bodily fluids. Over the years, they've clocked in their time on the road, leaving destruction in their wake. They've shared members with other bands in the Austin rock 'n' roll community including Sweet Spirit, OBN IIIs, Bobby Jealousy, and others.
