mmbtv: Diamond Dogs

David Bowie recorded Diamond Dogs in late 1973 / early 1974 and released it in 1974.

It's a concept album that blends Bowie's interest in George Orwell's 1984 with a glam-rock post apocalyptic vision.

Great songs from the album include the title track Diamond Dogs and Rebel Rebel.

According to Wikipedia, the album was certified gold in 1974, and was a precursor to punk rock, what with it's
raw guitar style and visions of urban chaos, scavenging children and nihilistic lovers.
Give Diamond Dogs a listen right now!
