    Anyone else listen to them? I downloaded a few tracks and they're pretty amazing. "Girl Anachronism" is the best song I've heard in months.

    Well, for anyone who's the slightest bit curious:

    Imagine Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs crossed with a more verbose, schizophrenic Jagged Little Pill-era Alanis Morissette, and slap her across the face a few times to piss her off, spike her drinks with speed and LSD, and sit her down at a piano with a jazz drummer accompanying her. Weird and brilliant stuff.

    I've only ever heard "Coin Operated Boy" which is pretty cool. Would like to hear more of their stuff though.

    Another thing I really like about them is the fact that Amanda Palmer keeps a detailed blog on the site..it's refreshing to see a band that isn't stuck up their own arse. But I guess as they get more successful there'll be less and less time for blogging..ah well.

    Amz, go to their website at www.dresdendolls.com and download Girl Anachronism, you won't be disappointed.

    girl anachronism is good but the version i heard was rough round the edges. "The time has come" is good as well, and it's nice to hear something a bit different.

    I got the album today and I can confirm, it is every bit as varied and brilliant as Girl Anachronism. Get it, get it now!
