==History==
+
The original Dogs on Prozac lineup ([[Wayne Fontaine]], [[Baz Turner]] & [[Olly Eason]]) recorded two tracks in a weekend at Downbeat Studio in 2001 - ''Fonzie Gets the Girls'', and ''Hijack the Sun''. ''Fonzie'' was included in the [[Zeropointone|zero point one]] compilation.<br>

+
The band was offered an overseas touring contract, to begin in mid-2003. However, Eason quit in 2002, and was replaced by Morse on drums. Another six rhythm tracks were laid down at Villa Studios in Rotorua. In January 2003 [[Baz Turner]] and his partner were killed in a car accident, the day after a show at Barbarella's in Rotorua with Xanadu and [[The Shrugs]]. [[Wayne Fontaine]] left for Ireland after completing and releasing [[Songs For the Soon To Be Dead]] with Eason and Towers at [[Downbeat Studio]]. He eventually returned to New Zealand, specifically Auckland, and formed disco-punk band [[Kitty Hawk]].
