doll drops record like a hot rock on the top of the charts - fans all over it like a hobo on a ham sandwich
out of nowhere, left field, the doll got a wild hair up her ass and decided to drop her album that we've all been patiently waiting for since 2016.
the LP has 13 songs and was supposed to be full of original material but plot twist, it's not - it's a cover album. the title track is original, sure, but that's where it begins and ends. ok, ok, kathleen is is on vocals on every track and she's also playing gee-tar. which, i know, scares some people; but, to those people i would say: not playing your instrument is a way of playing an instrument. also i would tell them to pull the stick out of their asses because the doll is a rock 'n' roll genius.
the tracklist for COOLER THAN U:
1.) “cooler than u” - the doll
2.) “oh me” - nirvana
3.) “the ballad of jim jones” - the brian jonestown massacre
4.) “louie louie” - the kingsmen
5.) “love shack” - the B52s
6.) “babyshambles” - the libertines
7.) “love spreads” - the stone roses
8.) “miss world” - hole
9.) “mellon collie and the infinite sadness” - the smashing pumpkins
10.) “today your love, tomorrow the world” - the ramones
11.) “self hate, bad dub” - atmosphere
12.) “harness your hopes” - pavement
13.) “praise you” - fatboy slim
i'm actually a bit pissed because over the years, so many rumors came out as to what would be featured on the album, even in the realm of cover tunes. here are some honorable mentions that were thrown around, but not included in the final pressing:
1.) “insane in the membrane” - cypress hill
2.) “sweet leaf” - black sabbath
3.) “lithium” - nirvana
LOL, my favorite part is that all of the songs that maybe would have been featured are all about drugs. go her.
