5.0 out of 5 stars Great pop-punk record, March 22, 2005

I've been listening to punk for 20+ years and still love it. Thanks to the Fungus station on XM I have discovered many new great bands. The Dollyrots are one of them.

This is a great CD. I listened to a few of the mp3 clips on their website and downloaded their "Kick my to the curb" video. That hooked me.

From beginning to almost the end (see below) it filled with songs that will stick in your head. What is suprising to me is that even the slow songs are great. I love the mix between the fast songs and the slower "ballads."

The funny thing about female fronted punk groups is that they tend to not sing about politics. You will not find Bad Religion or Propagandhi anthems on this record. The song tend to discuss love and life, but no politics. But that's o.k. The songs are so catchy that I forgive them.

The only lame song is their last song, a remake of a 60's song. It reminded me of the Jam's "Setting Sons," another great record that is tarnished by a lame 60's cover. Please punk bands, stop with the covers. Very few work. Lagwagon may be the only band that can really make a cover their own. The great thing about the Dollyrot's lame song is that it is the last one.

Anyone, 1 dud in the whole CD is pretty darn good. Don't let that stop you from getting this CD.

Check out there website and listen to a few of their clips. Download the video at your own risk...if you watch/listen to it, you will be hooked.

4.0 out of 5 stars Eat Your Heart Out, June 29, 2005

I first heard The Dollyrots as a warm up act for the Mr. T Experience before they were even signed. They totally blew me away, and a few months later i found their album, Eat Your Heart Out , on the shelves of my college radio station. This album is full of catchy pop hooks that are great to sing along to while driving in the car. I'm a sucker for female fronted bands, and Kelly's infectious, super-poppy vocals did not disappoint me. Definately worth the money. Recommended tracks: Kick Me To The Curb, Jackie Chan, Goodnight Tonight, New College.

I heard about The Dollyrots almost entirely by accident via the 'net but am definitely glad I did . This cd is loaded from beginning to end with songs you'll find yourself rocking out and singing along with for months ( if Amazon would make a few track listening clips available on this page you'd have some idea of what I mean ! ). Singer / bassist Kelly Ogden's delightfully edgy and enchanting vocals are nearly every bit as addictive as your favorite confection . Her singing combined with the excellent punk inspired instrumental work on the album creates what can only be described as pure combustible chemistry ; a sugar and nitro cocktail for the ears . Exceptionally good songs are Kick Me to The Curb , Jackie Chan , Feed Me Pet Me , Goodnight Tonight ( this is a slow one but I loved it the first time I heard it ) , New College ( one of the top five catchiest songs you'll ever hear in your life ) , and a nicely done , slightly punkified version of Be My Baby . While most cd's require pressing the skip button at least three or four times to make it past the intolerable tracks , this one listens completely through without a hitch .

P.S. - If you get a chance to see The Dollyrots live , just clear your calendar and go - I saw them recently and they were excellent !
