Definitely one of my new All-Time Favorites.

The Dresden Dolls are simply amazing beyond words.
a tasty gothic treat!
Jun 8 2004
Format:Audio CD
I try to describe this record to my friends as the interbreeding of the minimalism of the White Stripes with the silky darkness of Poe's album Haunted, with a good bit of cabaret thrown in. From the opening middle-finger-to-the-ex crescendo that is "Good Day" that is immediately followed by a strange little jump-rope ditty, you know you're in for a dark treat. One of the most interesting albums I've bought in recent memory.
My personal favorite on the album, hidden among goth-tinged melodramas of self-mutilation, wind-up boyfriends, and the perils of gravity, is track 10, the Jeep Song. It's a strange little indie rock ode to an ex's 96 Jeep Cherokee - a favorite, since red Honda Civics like one of my exes drove are enough to make me cringe a bit.
I can't recommend this CD enough. Go out and buy it, it's probably getting pretty wide distribution by this time.

The Dresden Dolls have crafted a piece of musical perfection. Particular delights are the baroque whimsy of "Coin-Operated Boy" and the deliciously fiendish "Girl Anachronism". The entire album is genius, and the blend of drums and piano comes off without a hitch. Amanda Palmer's vocals and lyrics snatch you from the first moment and hold you by the throat.
Recommended wholeheartedly.

Almost Amazing
The Dresden Dolls capture everything you would ever want in a great CD. They've got excellent dynamics going from soft (almost too soft at times) to very loud and full of emotion. Read more

Who Could Ever, Ever Ask for More?
This album is amazing, as other reviews have already stated. How can anyone go wrong with extremely original, dark pop songs with a good sense of humor? Honestly, you can't. Read more

simply amazing...a few flaws, though. :(
This CD has some of the best instrumental music on it. Unfortunately, the lyrics are doing to music a disservice in some of the songs. Read more

Stellar.
That the other reviewers (even journalists) seem confounded by what exactly it is that The Dresden Dolls are doing, is a testement to their art (which is what this is). Read more

earth-shaking, sinister, terrible and PERFECT
Imagine the worst night following your break-up. You're alone, bitter, angry, and crying on the bathroom floor. Read more

Punk cabaret is a "perfect fit"
Old porcelain toys are what come to mind when you hear the name of the "Dresden Dolls." But their faces and their music sure won't make you think of toys. Read more
