Undone

Disregard the other 'review' which says that this album is not good, because that is simply not true. I have many varying tastes, just like anyone else, and consider my musical palate to be fairly broad. One of the first bands I heard in the genre of electronic pop was Dolores, and I instantly was drawn to them. Their eclectic and bare-bones style was the first thing that struck me, as the filler and fluff that pervades much of popular music (in America at least) was absent, in favor of raw emotion and ability, not afraid to step out from the cage of appealing to fads that so many bands today get trapped in, inhibiting their creativity. I can honestly say that Dolores, as well as the band members' other projects, are among my favorite music; alongside such varied acts as Escape The Day, The Police, and King Diamond.

The 12 tracks on Undone present a lot of different things, from anger to happiness, sadness to disgust, longing to disappointment, et cetera. All of them are very well composed, with a lot of thought and feeling put into the melodies and vocals. My favorite tracks in particular are: 'Falling Down', 'The Boy Who', and 'Obscene', though all of them are equally good and special in their own right.

I encourage you to listen to this incredible debut album, and I hope that we will hear more from this fantastic group as time goes on.
