DOG ALMIGHTY are the joined forces of Joff, Kim, Fred & Sindri, rising from the ashes of Span & Farout Fishing. We started out in January 2006 and experienced a creative explotion which quickly turned into 13 kick-ass songs. When we wrote lyrics, we first sat down and discussed the topic we would like to write about for hours, before we put it into words. That way we can stand tall for every word. It is also important for us to write about things that engages us. In March we started building our studio where we've been spending hundreds of hours the last year, producing our album.
We are incredibly proud of the result, and hope you will love it too!
The Dog Almighty cd hit the stores in Norway September 24th, and every cover is hand made by the band. No bullshit. That means that if you buy the cd in the stores, your copy have our fingerprints all over it.

Hei (beklager spamkarakteren på denne kommentaren, men hva skal man gjøre)
Hjelp oss å spille på Arvikafestivalen. Gå inn på http://www.myspace.com/arvikafestivalen og stem på Tyst! Vi er evig takknemlige for all hjelp vi får. Tusen takk.
The weather has finally turned warmer in this region.We'd been suffering a somewhat unusual length of bitter cold, but are definitely happy that spring has at last sprung!!
2009 shall bring a lot of adventure;activities. Take for example,plans to climb Mt.Fuji with mates this summer.
We are definitely going to succeed into watching the sunrise upon our climb to the summit. That is a view I cannot wait to bear witness.
Also,are plans with a mate(or more) to travel to another country.Perhaps Australia. Will get back to you on that.
I do wish to earn enough money to be able to swing by England by the end of this year.
Will be a while...!!
Keep your eyes peeled! Teehee....
I must say,that I believe "LIFE" only begins at 30!!
It is splendidly a marvellous feeling. Let me know of your plans,Darl...~*
