The Scratch - Pull Like a Dog - CD - Pre Order 13/3/26

This is a pre order title for release 13.3.26

Following the success of their second album Mind Yourself (2023), coupled with their unrivalled high-octane live shows, playing to growing crowds across Ireland, the UK, Europe, the US and Australia, The Scratch are considered one of Ireland’s most exciting bands.

Cleverly fusing folk and metal music, played on acoustic instruments, with loud guitar riffs and raucous energy, The Scratch consistently capture the crowd’s attention with their powerful stage presence. With support from the likes of Iggy Pop, BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music and Kerrang!, the band are showing no signs of slowing down.

Following a busy 2025 - touring across the US with The Dropkick Murphy’s, supporting Dermot Kennedy at MISNEACH (a new global Irish festival in Sydney), performing at this year’s Download Festival, and their music recently featured in Netflix’s acclaimed historical drama series House of Guinness – The Scratch are set to release their brand new album ‘Pull Like A Dog’ on 13th March 2026 via Sony Music Ireland.

Written in Hellfire Studio in Dublin with engineer Thomas Donoghue and producer John ‘Spud’ Murphy (Lankum, Black Midi, caroline), ‘Pull Like A Dog’ is a fiercely powerful introduction to a brand-new chapter for the band.

The folk-metal supremos release the title track ‘Pull Like A Dog’ to coincide with the announcement of their new album. With its raucous energy and loud guitar riffs, the single is a prime example of The Scratch’s serious raw talent to cleverly combine folk and metal music, creating something that is distinctive and original. “It’s about tossing aside the idea of apologising for merely existing or hoping that if I keep colouring inside the lines I’ll get what I think I deserve” Daniel Lang (Lango – vocals, cajon) notes. “Mocking myself a bit but also getting the blood going so I’ll grab life by the scruff and be loud about it”.
