II Quantity in Basket: None
Price: $10.00
Artist: The Stewart Dolly
Manufacturer: self-released
 
 
Quantity:
 
The Stewart Dolly is a three-piece power-pop band from Edison, NJ with distorted guitars and two-part harmonies. The band was formed as a necessity to be able to play and fully realize the hundreds of songs that Bob Osowski (guitar/vocals) was writing.  JP (drums/backing vocals) adds rock-solid drumming and Kraemer (bass/vocals) brings the high (and low) harmony vocals and bass.  The group takes musical influence from 90’s bands like Superdrag, Guided By Voices, and Weezer, as well as 60’s/70’s groups like The Beach Boys, ELO, and Neil Diamond (although you may not hear it!).  When they’re not running through the songs in the basement, they’re usually recording them in the attic.  For better or for worse, The Stewart Dolly records and mixes all of their releases, because it’s just more fun that way.  “The Stewart Dolly deliver Weezer-inspired geek rock without falling into imitation.  In fact, ‘scrappy Weezer’ might be the most concise and precise way to describe ‘II’. Alternatively, the band would have fit right in with those late 90’s and early 00’s acts in the slipstream of modern pop punk, like The Stereo or Ultimate Fakebook - but with a rawer, less polished edge that sets them apart.” - AddToWantList  “’II’ is 31 minutes of The Stewart Dolly at their best. Power-pop hooks and harmonies combine with distorted guitars (NOT overdrive), ‘in the red’ bass, and hard-hitting drums to produce a timeless classic.  They’ve stripped away all the bullsh*t and has emerged out the other side with an album so tight that you NEED to play it twice. They ain't gonna sell themselves short anymore; this sh*t is good and they know it. I tell you their egos are ten stories high if they were a foot.  The Stewart Dolly is giving you not one but two songs about ‘Final Fantasy VII’, multiple songs about friendships past and present, songs about night riding in the Pines, thrift store finds, tequila shots (the right way), bodies of water with no ghosts, and Valeria from ‘Conan the Barbarian’.  You can't make this sh*t up.” - Repertoire  GREAT!!
