Ahhhhh
I recently started listening to The Dresden Dolls. I like some of their songs, but some need a few more listens, or for me to be in the mood.

I found No, Virginia a massive disappointment.
There's a few good tracks- Night Reconnaissance, Dear Jenny, The Mouse and the Model - but I just couldn't get into it.

I didn't buy that one
because I heard it was shite. I have the other two and some of A is for Accident though. They're doing a reunion tour but only in the US, annoyingly, or I'd go - they were awesome live.

It's a B Side album. Never as good.
Though I do love NR, the video's funny as well.

I can't work out if I prefer the self titled one or Yes, Virginia..., they both have their moments and shit songs.

Overall Yes, Virginia is better
mainly because it has Delilah, which has to be one of the greatest songs of all time.

No, I'd have to disagree
The self titled one is better, with the exception of 672 which I don't think I've ever listened to all the way through - it irritates me so much that I've skipped it every single time.

You can disagree all you like, you're still wrong
Yes, Virginia is a more cohesive album and although Dresden Dolls has some of their best songs (Coin Operated Boy, Jeep Song, Half Jack) as a whole the album is inconsistent.

So Nerrrrr.

Oh Delilah
I love that. Also a big fan of Mrs O.

The tracks I like
Are on The Dresden Dolls, in particular Coin Operated Boy (the only song I remember them playing when they supported NIN).

The New York Dolls were better.
