Product Description
Dum Dum Girls' second full length, Only in Dreams, is a great leap forward for a gifted songwriter and an equally gifted band. Only in Dreams blends deeply personal lyrics inspired by the death of singer Dee Dee's mother and the strain of separation from loved ones with the band's signature blend of '60s girl-gang pop, the primitive propulsion of the Cramps and the moody atmospherics of Mazzy Star. The album is the first to feature the playing and singing of all four members, and months on the road and full-on studio production have molded Dum Dum Girls into a formidable rock band.

I'll never figure out how they got Chrissy Hynde to sing for them.

(Just kidding, of course, but that lead singer sure sounds like Chrissy.)

Picked this album up over the weekend and really enjoyed it. I saw the ladies in concert last fall and it seemed at the time their sound was improving from the first album. The shorter songs on the new album are my favorite though the 6 minute plus "Wasted Away" is very nice. The music & vocals still remind me a lot of the Vivian Girls, and that's a good thing.
