Bowie, David
Diamond Dogs
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Released in 1974, "Diamond Dogs" marks a turning point in Bowie's career. With this album, he abandoned the glam rock style that had made him famous and took a bold step into the world of dystopian science fiction. The result is a haunting and epic album that tells the story of a post-apocalyptic world where the only survivors are a pack of feral and decadent humans.

The album kicks off with the title track, a funky and catchy ode to the decadence of the Diamond Dogs, which sets the tone for the rest of the album. From there, Bowie takes us on a journey through the dark alleys and twisted minds of his dystopian world, with tracks like "Sweet Thing" and "Rebel Rebel" showcasing his incredible range as a songwriter and performer.

But it's the epic three-part suite that makes up the heart of the album that truly cements "Diamond Dogs" as a masterpiece. "We Are The Dead", "1984" and "Big Brother" are a tour-de-force of storytelling and musical experimentation, taking the listener on a rollercoaster ride through the darkest corners of Bowie's mind.

With its raw energy, innovative soundscapes and unforgettable lyrics, "Diamond Dogs" is an album that demands to be experienced in all its glory. And now, you can own it on vinyl, the way it was meant to be heard.
