DogState are amongst the few hard rock bands left in London. With appearances at many of the premier clubs in London (including Dublin Castle, Water Rats Theatre and The Barfly), they have shown they can mix things up and be amongst the elite in their genre.

It hasn't just been the inhabitants of the capital that have been subjected to the ferocity of DogState's live show as the band have taken to the open road. This is the band's natural surrounding, executing the delivery with a sonic intensity that leaves the audience electrified! The members of the band are all established gigging and studio musicians. For the quartet, it's a way of life which also inspires them by bringing their collective experiences and influences to the music and live performance. Now armed with their debut EP, "War Baby", produced by Pat Collier (The Vibrators, Zodiac Mindwarp, Primal Scream) and with opening track "Colt" receiving airtime, DogState have momentum to see them on to the next level.

DogState appeared alongside Canadian metal act Cancer Bats at their 2011 date in London. DogState also made the final of the UK national Live and Unsigned competition, when interviewed by the event compere as to what their possible plans for spending the prize money were, the band indicate that all monies would be employed on hookers and narcotics, thus ingratiating themselves instantly with the audience present but sadly not the judges.
