The Doll - Listen To The Silence
Review by Reginaldo Rege
Doll's album Listen To The Silence is a mesmerizing journey into the depths of the human soul. With hauntingly beautiful melodies and lyrics that resonate with emotion, this record is a must-listen for fans of indie rock and experimental music.
The opening track, "Silent Night," sets the tone for the album with its ethereal vocals and dreamy guitar riffs. As the album progresses, Doll explores themes of love, loss, and self-discovery through tracks like "Echoes" and "The Other Side."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Fading Away," which features a hypnotic beat and introspective lyrics that speak to the universal experience of feeling lost and alone. Another highlight is "Broken," a powerful ballad that showcases Doll's stunning vocal range and raw emotional depth.

Summary by Reginaldo Rege
Comments
The Doll were featured as the first cut on the infamous Streets compilation released in 1977 on UK's Beggars Banquet label. That song, Trash, is a great, fun and original punky track but this album, Listen To The Silence has none of those characteristics. There is some good music like "Cinderella With A Husky Voice" for one but this LP could certainly be passed on. It was released on UK's Beggars Banquet Records in 1979.
