In the bin 'My Sharona', Dolly Mixture are truly the ones with The Knack!
While I've been long aware of Dolly Mixture as a for-fans-of The Vaselines and Shop Assistants type band, and also from them being bigged-up by prominent Canadian Hardcore/Shoegaze/Madchester revival commune Fucked-Up, this singles collection (and the demos collection which I'll re-order soon) only recently opened my door to this effortlessly great band!
Bandcamp user gola83 is not as thrilled... "Its honestly not what i expected. Side A is good from start until the 2nd to last track, The rest of the album is some orchestral crap. Had i known i would have passed. Its unlistenable. Is a refund possible lol ?"
My counter argument is that the orchestral crap shows the universality of this trio's melodic and songwriting skills. It kind of harks back to the 60s girl group sound that I’d guess was an influence. - Nic
