Well, maybe I'm the only Dresden Dolls fan here, butstill.
Theyareawesome.
From Wikipedia:
"The Dresden Dolls are a two-piece band from Boston, Massachusetts, formed mid-2000 and made up of singer/pianist Amanda Palmer and drummer/occasional guitarist and vocalist Brian Viglione. They describe their style as "Brechtian punk cabaret", and have exposed an underground dark cabaret movement that started gaining momentum in the early 90's with artists like Salon Betty and Gavin Friday."
"The name, according to Palmer, was 'inspired by a combination of things', including the firebombing of Dresden, Germany and the porcelain dolls which were a hallmark of prewar Dresden industry; an early song of the same name by The Fall; and a reference to the V.C. Andrews novel Flowers in the Attic where the classically blond and blue-eyed protagonists are called 'the Dresden dolls.' The name also evokes Weimar Germany and its cabaret culture. Additionally, she 'liked the parallel between Dresden (destruction) and Dolls (innocence, delicacy), because it is very much in keeping with the dynamics of the music, which sometimes goes from a childlike whisper to a banshee scream within a few seconds.'"
Anyway, they're pretty damn awesome
I definitely recommend buying their CD
Amanda's voice is so passionate, and the way she plays the piano...
It's amazing
I hope I can see them live someday...
