Our Take

Ah, the long-awaited return of the legendary New York Dolls with their latest album "Butterflyinin". The band that defined glam punk rock in the 70s is back with a bang, bringing their signature mix of outrageous style and infectious energy to the modern music scene.

From the opening track, it's clear that the Dolls haven't lost their edge. Johnny Thunders' iconic guitar riffs are as sharp as ever, while David Johansen's charismatic vocals command attention. The band's raw, unapologetic sound is still present, but there's a newfound maturity in their songwriting that adds depth to their music.

Tracks like "Big City Lights" and "New York Groove" are anthems for the city that never sleeps, capturing the gritty, glamorous essence of NYC in the Dolls' inimitable style. Meanwhile, "Glamour Punk" and "Rebel Rebel" showcase the band's rebellious spirit and devil-may-care attitude.

Butterflyinin is a rollercoaster of an album, taking listeners on a wild ride through the streets of New York City and beyond. It's a bold statement from a band that refuses to be pigeonholed or tamed, reminding us why the New York Dolls will always be the ultimate rock 'n' roll renegades. So strap in, crank up the volume, and let the Dolls take you on a trip you won't soon forget.

About the artist

New York Dolls

The New York Dolls: the original glam rock provocateurs, the ultimate sleazy rock 'n' roll band, a whirlwind of glitter, attitude, and killer tunes. Formed in 1971 in the seedy underbelly of New York City, these five misfits took the music world by storm with their gender-bending fashion sense and raw, high-energy performances. Fronted by the enigmatic David Johansen, known for his snarling vocals and larger-than-life persona, and backed by the equally flamboyant Johnny Thunders on guitar, the Dolls were a force to be reckoned with. Their self-titled debut album, released in 1973, was a shot of adrenaline straight to the heart of the rock scene, with anthems like "Personality Crisis" and "Trash" becoming instant classics. But it wasn't just their music that made the Dolls so iconic; it was their entire aesthetic. From their over-the-top stage outfits to their wild antics offstage, they were the epitome of rock 'n' roll excess. And while their original run may have been short-lived, their influence can still be felt in the punk and glam scenes today. So, if you're looking for a taste of the New York Dolls' unique brand of rock 'n' roll madness, dive into their discography and let yourself be transported back to a time when music was loud, wild, and wonderfully, unapologetically decadent. The New York Dolls may be gone, but their legacy lives on, a glittering reminder of a time when rock 'n' roll was pure, unadulterated fun.
