Holy shit! I love the Dresdon Dolls.

Girl Anachranism is my favorite song from them.

Fuckin' A !

And coin operated boy.

lol yeah i <3 girl anachronism

I think theyre ok. Kinda strange, but cool music. Theyre from right around where I live, so my dad has been a fan of theirs for a while now. He got the new DVD for Christmas, I should probably go watch it sometime. I might get more into their music.

I tried listening to them, but they just annoyed me. =/

I agree. I saw them open for a band I like a few years back, and it was pure torture. I'll admit I think they did a pretty good job with their album, but they're seriously the worst live band I've ever seen =\

Girl Anachranism


I love that song!

I love the Dresden Dolls!! My favourite song by them is Missed Me. i think its great

They're fun...if you like the Dolls, you may want to check out Devotchka and/or Gogol Bordello. Similar in some ways, but I like them even more.

The other week, the drummer came to my camp (his mom knows the head of camp) and me and my friends sat with him at lunch and his friend too (she had tats from the sides of her lips down her neck) they were both super nice!

i've only heard a few of thier songs but they are good!

I also agree. I've listened to some of their songs and honestly, that was the worst music I've ever heard.

I don't like them. Extremely overrated band.

I've heard a couple of songs, and they're pretty damn good.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I'm going to see the Dolls on October 13th (that's a Friday ooooo) and I'm so excited. From what I've seen on YouTube they are really awesome live.

Check out this 5-minute drum solo by Brian, it's fucking amazing:

^btw that's one of my favorite DD songs, "Half Jack"

I swear, this band does a God awful cover of War Pigs.

best example of ruining a great song

devotchka... hmmm. i already like gogol bordello

but hey! has anyone got their new CD? and how was it?

I like the songs of theirs that I have heard.

agreedagreedagreed.
I remember watching them and thinking they'd go nowhere
Where is all this popularity coming from? I don't understand it. How is this band appealing to anyone?

exactly.

if you look on youtube comments on that sing video, a bunch of people are saying "ohh, best band eva" and "ohh this made me cry" or something. not to criticise anyone's opinion, but how can anyone like them?! that singer is sooooooooo anoying.

I have a thing against dolls fans. Probably because dolls fans have a thing against me.

This thread needs a good bump!
I've listened to 'Dirty Business' and it's an awesome song.

I like "Dirty Business" and "Sex Changes" the most, i havent listen to the first album but the second is great.

wow, I just had a change of heart.

I really like them now.

Though, I apologize for nothing!

I've listened to a few of their songs, and liked them. I'm considering getting one of their albums, but I'm a little short on cash at the moment.

Interesting what they do. Never heard anything quite like them. Cool

I luv the Dresend Dolls especially Coin Operated Boy such a good song

They supported Panic @ the Disco when they toured Australia wish I could have gotten a ticket to that 1 but it sold out so fast

they opened for patd? patd should be opening for them!

yes they are, to me a song needs bass and guitar and drums the piano maybe in the backround.

Yeah, they did. It should have been the other way around for sure. I don't kno why they were the support

At least Amanda can actually do well live (except in War Pigs, I may like the Dolls now, but I still HATE that cover).

1) wowww old thread... i havent listened to them in FOREVER.

2) referring to the quote... i am very much like that too, but the oddness of the dolls made them appeal to me.. and you have to admit some fo there songs are catchy.

i still love them even though i havent listened to them in months

I kinda like how even though it's only 2 people on piano and drums, it still sounds so great, and I sometimes forget that its only 2 people.

i love their style. i like amanda palmer's voice... really catchy.

Strangely enough, I don't miss the guitar in their songs. Lyrics are just incredible. I really like Good Day & Colorblind. Half Jack is super powerful

I absolutely love them. They're one of my favourite bands.
The first time I heard them I just became addicted to their style and sound, I liked their originality most of all. All of their songs are very catchy and well performed.

Haha, they're not even from Dresden

What has that got to do with it?

Anyway....

Dresden is a city in eastern Germany that was known widely for it's delicate china and porcelain, and for the delicate and innocent “dresden dolls” made from said stuffs. Ironically, many people also associate Dresden with the not-so-delicate firebombing that took place at the hands of the allies towards the very end of WWII in 1945, practically levelling the entire inner city (and it's unparalleled architectural beauty) within a few short days and killing thousands of men, women and children. If you're interested in an excellent book touching on the subject, written from an American soldier's artistic perspective, check out “Slaughterhouse Five” by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

amanda palmer is pretty fucking sexy... i'd go all lesbian for her...

i really like their song backstabber.

i loveee them

Holy shit, I love them.
One of the greatest bands EVER.

I've only heard a few songs, but what I heard is good. I love Backstabber and Coin Operated Boy.


You've had quite a turnaround in this thread haven't you?

Yes. I'm very weird in case you don't know.
