That Dog Retreat From the Sun

Available On Vinyl for the First Time!

Originally conceived as a solo album from frontwoman Anna Waronker, the 1997 third studio LP from That Dog arrived polished, constructed and aerodynamic for the late 90's post-grunge haze it emerged from. While gems like "Hawthorne" quaintly imagine punk rock shows in car garages and "Minneapolis" recalls the "I only saw her for one second" ephemeral beauty of Citizen Kane, the album itself traverses a myriad of emotions and counts among its fans both Pat Smear and the Vivian Girls. And it includes appearances by Steve McDonald (Redd Kross), Charlotte Caffey (The Go-Go's) and Tanya Haden (The Haden Triplets) to boot! Touring in support of the record had That Dog sharing stages with the likes of Counting Crows, The Wallflowers and Blur. A deep interview by Matt Pinfield on MTV's 120 Minutes provided prime underground exposure. Boosted by a glossy music video, "Never Say Never" even found its way onto the Billboard Modern Rock charts. While a picture disc version of alternate mixes was self-released by the band 2017, this is the first-ever vinyl release of this album.
