Free Music Notes for New York Dolls
Free Music Review: MISLEADING
Hit: 5 Stars
I'm a big fan of cool eighties bands like Motley Crue, Warrant, Poison, Disneyland After Dark, Europe etc. I saw this cd by the New York Dolls band from a link. I saw the cover and thought they look wicked cool in their cranked out gear so I checked out the comments and everyone said how cool it was. I bought it and I have to say it is definitely NOT cool. I listened to it. At first I checked the cd cover to see if I got the wrong cd by mistake and got a demo album of the New York Dolls instead. Nope. This was the right cd.The guitar screeched and blared while a bass hiccupped over a drumbeat leading the patient of an insane asylum that screamed and shouted the lyrics. All the songs sound alike too.They all clunk and grind and shunt into each other like a multiple car crash. This is not like any of the cool bands I said at the beginning. It is not like any band. The New York Dolls band is misleading. They are not from New York. They are from Mars.
New York Dolls Poster
In 1972, when rock & roll was all but dead in Manhattan, five cross-dressing glam punks from the boroughs convened and began hammering out crude, sub-Chuck Berry rock for the downtown in-crowd. It took another year before a record company dared to sign them, thus foisting The New York Dolls on an essentially uninterested world. Taking their cue from the band's guitarist/Keefalike Johnny Thunders, hardcore Dolls fans pooh-poohed Todd Rundgren's production as wimpy: twenty-five years after its release, songs like "Personality Crisis" and "Looking for a Kiss" sound more trashily invigorating than ever. With the Rolling Stones finished as a vital force by '73, the doomed Dolls were there to step into the void. A classic. --Barney HoskynsLimited edition Japanese pressing has been remastered and comes packaged in a miniature LP sleeve. Along with the Stooges, the New York Dolls were largely responsible for pioneering the sound and attitude of punk, and this, their self-titled debut, is one of the founding documents of post-'60s rock. Outrageous, shambolic, and bursting with energy, the Dolls borrowed from the amped-up, bluesy swagger of the Rolling Stones, the pop confections of Phil Spector, and the campy theatricality that would flower with the glam movement, yet brought it all together with a visceral impact that recalled the jolt of early rock & roll. Mercury. 2006.
