Get out your hair dye, your plaid, and your combat boots—we're heading back to the world of 1980's British punk rock. Now it was easy enough to be in a punk band. The whole point was you didn't have to be able to sing or play your instruments. All you needed was something to be angry about.
The Toy Dolls, then, stand out among the crowd. For one thing, they have an uncommon amount of talent in writing catchy melodies. They also sing perfect harmonies to them and glide effortlessly through key changes and mood changes. And then there's the subject matter. Lead vocalist "Olga" sing his hyperactive, high-pitched way through tales of runaway elephants and test tube babies. "Spiders in the Dressing Room" is one of these. Olga's lyrics are innocuous as he recounts his battle with a very persistent arachnid. But don't worry – it's still loud and fast enough that your parents will tell you to turn that racket down.
