A Dog Called Ego is a German post rock band from Hamburg, Germany formed in 2006 by Christoph Stepan (guitar, vocals), Dirk Bakker (drums), Marcel Habbe (guitar, vocals) and Gregor Kaisser (bass guitar).[1]

History

Christoph Härtwig and Gregor Kaisser had already been playing together in several musical projects when they started working on musical material for a project that carried the working title "A DOG CALLED EGO."[2] In early 2006 they decided to record an album and asked two friends, Marcel Habbe and Dirk Bakker, to join them for a recording. The project quickly turned into a real band and the band started playing live.

In Summer they recorded their debut album Living Seriously Damages Health in their own studio in Hamburg[2] and it was described as the best alternative/Post Rock album of the last years by German Rock Hard Magazine.[3][4] On the album, Chris Harms, the singer of the German gothic rock band Lord of the Lost, played cello for the song Something Huge.[5][6]

After having played many concerts - including a two-week tour through Bosnia and Herzegowina- A Dog Called Ego started writing new musical material and started recording at their own Little Big Ears Studio in Hamburg/Germany. During the recording process, Marcel Habbe left the band due to personal reasons. In May 2011, A Dog Called Ego digitally released Happy Happy Apocalypse the second full-length record via Bandcamp, with physical copies being planned for later. Again, Chris Harms contributed some cello lines.[7]

In summer 2012 the band released the Don't Vote For Us EP and were asked by Anathema to support them on their European tour. Thereafter, A Dog Called Ego locked down in their studio again to work on Songs For Elevators which was released on September 11, 2014.

After an 8 year hiatus, in December 2022 the band released the Null And Void EP, their first music in 10 years being joined by Tim Grunwald (Bass) and Simon Janssen (Guitar).
