... think it really works for them; there is a certain punkish streak that is at the core of their music and you can't help but notice that on a track like 'Modern Moonlight', especially with Amanda's vocal snarling. The fourth track, 'My Alcoholic Friends' does slow the pace down a little but, as a track, it still has a set of imaginative lyrics and energy, about the transgression of a relapsing alcoholic. The pleasant thing about 'My Alcoholic Friends' is the fact that Amanda gets to display a slightly calmer side to he...more

The Dresden Dolls self titled debut album was a real burst of adrenaline in the stagnant alternative music scene; it's combination of raunchy, raw lyrics with powerful drums and crazy piano melodies made it an unforgettable listen, and an album that I shall always consider as one of my all time favourites. 'Yes Virginia' is the Detroit Duo's second offering and an album I very much anticipated. Having not heard any of the songs either as singles or album fillers until I received this as a birthday gift, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. Amanda Palmer and Brian Viglione's first outing as the Dolls was a complete success to me, with only a few dud songs on ... Read the complete review

Well executed vaudeville style album (189 words)

This is the second full length Dolls' LP, where the music style seems to shift its focus from Wiemar-era Europe to Old time vaudeville USA. Highlights are the saloon-like 'Mandy goes to Med School' and the short and sweet 'My Alcoholic Friends'. The ballads on this album (namely 'Delilah' and 'Mrs O') are very emotional and well written and in my opinion surpass their equivalents on the Dolls self-titled predecessor. Likewise, the modern and rock inspired tracks 'Shores of California' and 'Backstabber' are a great improvement and show how Amanda Palmer has developed in terms of writing fresh, contemporary melodies. The only track that didn't catch ... Read the complete review

Yes Virginia - The Dresden Dolls: Dresden Dolls Sequel Explodes To New Heights (417 words)

The Dresden Dolls are a punk cabaret duo consisting of Amanda Palmer (singer and pianist) and Brian Viglione (drums). Amanda Palmer has a very unique voice, it is low and deep. You may at times mistaken it for a male voice. Her vocals are full of emotions and this can have a very powerful effect on the listener. Amanda Palmer's piano playing is frantic and furious. I have never heard anyone strike the keys with such power and emotions as she does. Brain's drumming is essential is almost grounds Amanda's playing but also gives it definition. 'Yes Virginia' is the Dresden Dolls second album and although I loved the first album the sequel is alot more ... Read the complete review
