I Wardogs nascono nel 2009, “… non volevamo fare, però, una copia della band originale, ma una cosa tutta nostra, per certi versi originale, ci piaceva l’idea di partire da dove i Ramones avevano lasciato e, pur sempre nel rispetto della tradizione, offrirne una versione moderna come se suonassero ai giorni nostri”.
