The lovely duo's album, due out in April, has been advanced released (i verbed it?), and you can find a few tracks at Kill Your Co-Workers. And a secret, it seems. Ooh.
The album is titled Yes, Virginia, and the cover is gorgeous; Amanda and Brian are surrounded by a vivid, colorful bunch of flowers, very different from the gray cover of their previous release.
I've only listened to one song, but I can say Amanda's voice is just as powerful, and we still have the random exclamations, the pounding and melodic piano, the edgy viciousness. Enjoy and let me know what you think of the new stuff.
Says the guy at Kill Your Co Workers, "Don't worry, no crazy full band change-up on this one- and the trademark Dresden Dolls quirkiness is still quite intact. Lyrics regarding sex changes and do-it-yourself abortions (!) make it pretty apparent that they haven't given up their slightly bizarre take on the world, and Amanda's delivery and style is still as sexy as ever. No immediate favorite along the lines of "Coin-Operated Boy" is easy to find upon first listen, but I do have a few favorite tracks already..."
So it seems they are still full of malicious, exquisite trippiness. I'm excited.
Take me to the Dresden Dolls. & don't forget to say thank you to the fellow over there.
