THE NEW YORK DOLLS / DANCING BACKWARD IN HIGH HEELS (2011)

Long before MTV and Youtube, the NY Dolls got into rock's water supply and never left. They are America's most famous unknown band. The NY Dolls were and are about something more than glitz. Substance was and still is at the heart of their music and "Dancing Backward in High Heels" is proof that their longevity is not an accident! The NY Dolls are, simply, The Beatles of ATTITUDE!

THE NEW YORK DOLLS

New York Dolls - Self Titled(1973)

320kbps

There are hints of girl group pop and more than a hint of the Rolling Stones, but The New York Dolls doesn't really sound like anything that came before it. It's hard rock with a self-conscious wit, a celebration of camp and kitsch that retains a menacing, malevolent edge. The New York Dolls play as if they can barely keep the music from falling apart and David Johansen sings and screams like a man possessed. The New York Dolls is a noisy, reckless album that rocks and rolls with a vengeance. The Dolls rework old Chuck Berry and Stones riffs, playing them with a sloppy, violent glee. "Personality Crisis," "Looking for a Kiss," and "Trash" strut with confidence, while "Vietnamese Baby" and "Frankenstein" sound otherworldly, working the same frightening drone over and over again. The New York Dolls is the definitive proto-punk album, even more than anything the Stooges released. It plunders history while celebrating it, creating a sleazy urban mythology along the way.Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine(allmusic.com)
