Somewhere between the “Stranger Things” soundtrack and doing peyote in the desert, you’ll find the music of Cloud Dog.
Around three years ago, Cloud Dog called it a day. On Friday night, in front of a packed house full of costumed revelers at the Replay, they reemerged into the scene. The band, known for hypnotic electronic loops over drums on drums on drums, was (and still is) a favorite among the locals. Previously, they were known for always ditching their shirts when playing live. Now, when the audience begged them to take their tops off, they obliged… and revealed other shirts printed with the image of muscular pecks (well played, Cloud Dog).
Here’s how they started off the set, though it’s hardly a representation of the crescendoing vibe they developed over the course of nearly two hours.
