![]() Detroit Punks director Ivan Suvanjieff somehow got ahold of the new Demolition Doll Rods cd ON, and here's what he had to say: The Demolition Doll Rods' latest CD, aptly titled "On" might be the breakthrough album of the year. It's "On," it's seriously big-time "On" -- on the money, on top, right frickin' on, on time, on schedule, and on my Top Ten CDs of the year. The Demolition Doll Rods put more bounce to the ounce than your average legendary Detroit garage band -- with "On" they claim their independence, and make the tough stand as one of the Last Great Detroit Outlaw Bands. From the opening cut Get it On to the closing classic Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Doll Rods not only
prove that LESS is more, but also that their trash-rock aesthetic is
classy trash -- while most of the vaunted garage scrapings traipsing
over the boards in these fellaheen Republican days are just plain
rubbish. We all know it's not to polite to point, so we won't. The Doll Rods are also MORE rock than the latest million-dollar big-label signing. Danny "Doll Rod" Kroha's credentials are impeccable, unimpeachable, and Margaret and Christine have earned their cred, which, in Detroit, is no
small accomplishment. Don't believe me, go ask Bob Ritchie.Buy multiple copies of this CD and give 'em to your friends so that the next time they're suffering through some dumbfuck band's El Crap-Ola set on a Saturday night in July at the Magic Stick, they can feel smug knowing that in a few short hours they can be back in their cars with their stereo blasting the Doll Rods' "On." And remember this - approximately ten thousand people claim to have seen the Gories in their prime, but like Mick Collins said of this phenomenon, "That's a load of shit - I can name every person who saw us!" Don't miss the Demoltion Doll Rods. You want to be able to brag that you were the first kid on your block to buy "On," dontcha? I thought so. Next week: The Go Take Over the World, Beginning Right Now. Ivan Suvanjieff is bringing Detroit rock to the screen with Detroit Punks, currently in production. He also supplied us with the above hot photos of the Doll Rods rocking Denver's Larimer Lounge. |
