Very unusual and creative - different and I like it! x Rob of The Department

I love the way the voices sound on this, sounds kinda david bowie, reminds me off. He would think this is awesome, I love the way the lyrics and the different voices have been merged together ( so I don’t know what you call that but  when I can hear your voice at different pitches).

BUY THIS TRACK ON BANDCAMP: 

It's so typical; I'm so cynical you say
It's subliminal, it's just criminal that way
I'm like the girl of your dreams - when you are not with me
On reflection I need back on the pedestal please

Kiss and make up
And wake up in different states of obsession
I do this for my protection

Now I guess you know what I tried to show up front;
Are you disappointed that fucked-up is less fun?
I'm like the girl of your dreams when you are not with me
on reflection I need back on the pedestal please

With 80's electro bass and hooky synth lines, 'In Control' darkly drives a catchy déja-vu backdrop for DOLLS' trademark lyrical juxtaposition - this time threatening listeners with a gritty, but blasé kind of true love.

In Control (DOLLS + Fauxplay)

GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 debut release is definitely influenced by the recent tragic events in london. A beautiful piece of music at a much slower pace than usual kismet releases, extremely deep, the hypnotic beat that relentless play all the way thru and the orchestra that is playing with it takes you on a journey of reflection, shoegazing-house anyone?… early copies we have sent out have already gathered some incredible support. thank you once more for your support on our releases, we really appreciate you taking time to listen to our releases and sending us your feedback so go and enjoy this one and see you on the next release.

Walked Away

Misty eyed missing the way that you made me amazing
without dedicating the time
Guess you were just there to save me
and maybe I walked around faded most of the time
Thank you for letting me know I was special
I could have easily have gone my whole life
Without an accurate expert appraisal
I might not ever have realized
Better half – you can have it
Keep it secret – like your habit
I was sleeping through the movie
Now you want to be credited through me
I didn’t know it was all for my benefit
till you were kind enough to explain
I had a feeble belief in succeeding
and you were the needle to inoculate
Thank you for praising me to the public
That’s very generous of you to say
I’m very flattered I’ve kept up your interest
After how much you’ve invested in me
I could not have been; no, not possibly.
All these moments are your stolen property.
Thank you awfully, for the pain that inspires me over and over again.

BETTER HALF

"This is sultry, sulky Disco filth for creatures of the night, and soundtrack to an underground revolution. It’s pouty, sadistic and attitude laden fairytale."

- Amy Kyriacou, Hoxton Amp (Apr 27, 2013)


DOLLS was born in mid-2009 as the more offensive byproduct of a commercial pop career gone AWOL.  Drawing her influence from Joy Division, Tears for Fears and Depeche Mode, DOLLS juxtaposes apocalyptic pop vocals with gritty lyricism, creating a uniquely dark synthpop signature.

Bored after penning and performing two mainstream hits for Warner Music (charting top 10/20 in national video/radio), DOLLS moved from Toronto, Canada to London, UK and relaunched her music career as an independent artist, releasing the self-produced SECRET SULK in January, 2013.  DOLLS’ inimitable style has enchanted international artists of all descriptions (Salman Rushdie is a fan and Rough Trade‘s Carole Pope described SECRET SULK as “The Best Album Ever”) and she is, as ever, terribly sought after but difficult to pin down.
