The Doll

The Doll is very poppy band with an extremely dominant keyboard sound, akin to The Stranglers' but not so flashy.

The Doll was nonetheless responsible for two great fast Punk tracks on their first single. B-Side 'Trash' had previously appeared on the Streets compilation. Single #2 Desire Me was much slicker, enough so to propel them into the Top 30 and earn them a two-month chart residence and a Top Of The Pops appearance. Or maybe it was the sleeve (lead singer Marion 'Baby Doll' Valentine in a leopard skin suit), or the multiple format releases. Regardless, the amount of attention paid to the sexpot singer splintered the group, and the new band that emerged in its wake was even poppier and smoother sounding.
