WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING
Blender - March 2007
“God bless bratty, bass playing punk grrls. Lucky for L.A.'s Dollyrots, they happen to have one”
No Good TV - March 2007
“The title of the new Dollyrots record says it all…I feel awesome every time I listen to it. Joan Jett couldn’t have found a better heir to her throne in Kelly Ogden.”
Gibson.com - March 2007
“If Los Angeles’ pop-punk outfit the Dollyrots were a Crayola crayon, Because I’m Awesome is a delectable Easter basket of songs, with chugging guitars set to infectious choruses of “nah-nah,” “yeah-yeah,” and “yum-yum… Ogden—all blond hair, tall boots, and short skirts—makes pissed off look adorable. And the Dollyrots make punk look like fun again”
All Music Guide - March 2007
“gleefully snotty bubblegum punk...you'll love Because I'm Awesome — in part because of the ironic whimsy of the title track, in part because of the scorched-earth political patter song "A Desperate S.O.S.," in part because of the absolute crunchy perfection of "17," and in part because of the band's exhilarating appropriation of 1970 bubblegum classic "Brand New Key."
Suite 10 - March 2007
“With the Dollyrots sophomore effort “Because I’m Awesome,” you get the best of both worlds – bubble gum sweetness mixed with punk attitude. It’s a combination not many bands can pull off, but The Dollyrots manage to do just that, and do it well
Celebrity Café - March 2007
“The Dollyrots' Because I’m Awesome is a true punk record with songs about displeasure, and hard instrument play which conveys their never give up attitude”
Monsters and Critics - March 2007
“Finally, music fans, there’s a new by a new group that carries the kiss-my-ass swagger we’ve not heard in far too long. The new album is ‘Because I’m Awesome’ and the new group are the Dollyrots”
Rock Star Journalist - March 2007
“The Dollyrots Because I’m Awesome is a slice of Ramones inspired pop-punk, with just a slice of buzzsaw guitar that would make the zeroboys proud”
The Punk Site - March 2007
“The Dollyrots: sugary and sweet on the outside, but once you get into them you'll see one decisively intense pop-punk band... Because I'm Awesome is a high energy, incredibly catchy and abnormally fun album to listen to. The Dollyrots create a fast paced, pop-punk sound that is unlike most out there”
Aversion - March 2007
“The Dollyrots rip into the power-pop and pop punk like they aim to help the world shake its need for antidepressants”
All Ages - March 2007
“Great album from a band that just seems to keep getting better”
The Cover Zone - March 2007
“Punk with plenty of twirls and swirls of pop is the best way to describe this surprise sophomore release from the L.A. based band The Dollyrots. The title track, Because I’m Awesome, should easily become a top ten hit”
