Dead Dog Summer

Dead Dog Summer is a 3-piece hardcore band from Cakovec, Croatia. The band was formed in late 2020 but the idea of a new band has been brewing in their minds for a long time so the pandemic and lockdown were a great time to spend some time and work on what they love most, making music and playing. 

Their sound is a combination of sparkly and heavy guitars, screaming and singing vocals and tight performance of rhythm section. Members of the band have been active on the scene for over 25 years in bands like The Farewell Reason, Nikad, Senata Fox, Implicite, Youth Against and many others.

Dead Dog Summer music would be easiest to describe as post hardcore as it was played in the late 90ies and the name represents "dog heat" that has been cooking in the rehearsal room for the last year since the boys created their debut album. Band members are Igor Bistrovic (guitar, vocals), Kreso Zerjav (bass, vocals) and Boris Strahija (drums).
