======================================================================
"Wild Dogs" is one of those underrated heavy metal classics from the early 80's. Many considered The Rods to be the American version of Motorhead, but in all honestly, even Motorhead wasn't tearing up the fretboard like this in '82. David "Rock" Feinstein simply shreds like few others were doing in his time. For the most part, "Wild Dogs" is a solid, outstanding heavy metal platter although the cover of "You Keep Me Hangin' On" is a bit of a dog compared to total shredders like "Too Hot to Stop" and the scorching title track. "Volation" has a slight AC/DC vibe to it. I do think that "Wild Dogs" has a slightly more commercial edge to it, compared to the band's debut. However, I don't think anyone would ever accuse The Rods of being an overly commercial metal band. "Wild Dogs" is pure, hard 'n' heavy metal that was light years ahead of it's time.
