Bio:
Explosive hard rocking trio The Rocket Dolls’ impressively powerful debut album, ‘Eyes’, set for release on July 28th, is a triumphant, two fingers up to the near-death experiences which almost scuppered the making of the album several times over. The end product of a long period of hard graft under harder circumstances, ‘Eyes’ hears the band’s perseverance in the face of adversity pay off at every anthemic, groove-laden turn.Mixing muscular metal riffage with grunge grit, the ’Dolls take their sonic cues from the likes of Alice In Chains, Helmet and Silverchair, and share Nirvana’s power trio dynamics. Vocalist and guitarist Nikki Smash is well qualified to lead the charge of fist-pumping rock with lashings of fighting spirit, having overcome more obstacles in the making of this debut than many battle-scarred rock veterans will have faced down by the closing pages of their memoirs. The past three years have seen Nikki undergo two operations for osteoarthritis and contract the e-coli virus while recuperating in hospital, only to then be hit with pneumonia! A born fighter, he’s kept writing throughout, and has recently sought to regain his strength by entering the boxing ring, yet he still finds fire and aggression to spare when delivering ferocious vocals to numbers like ‘Can’t Keep Him Down’ - an indestructible monster of a track that could well be his theme song.Backing Nikki up is powerhouse drummer, and long-standing partner in crime, Ben Knopfler. Son of a guitarist, Ben has music in his blood, but rather than following in his dad’s melodic footsteps he gravitated to the drums, and gives The Rocket Dolls their furious, fearsomely tight, foundations. Bassist Tommy K rounds out the rhythm section, and complements his bandmates’ grounding in grunge, by bringing a love of Guns ‘n’ Roses, Def Leppard and 80s metal to the table. He describes hearing Maiden’s ‘No Prayer For The Dying’ at the age of five as a defining moment, and credits Steve Harris with inspiring him to pick up the bass and adopt his trademark fingerpicking technique.The culmination of many months work, ‘Eyes’ now combines this talented trio’s diverse experiences and influences in defiant and spectacular style. Producer Mark Roberts excels at giving the 11 tracks a high-end punch and power, but are careful to ensure the polish doesn’t come at the expense of the authentic grit and raw edges which are essential elements of The Rocket Dolls’ sound.The band relentlessly hammer home the cornerstones of that sound - signature raging riffs, growled vocals, and an undeniable knack for huge, heavy, hooks - while simultaneously never leaving the listener wanting for variety. Over the course of the album they succeed in making everything from down-tuned, Sabbath-inspired, doom (grinding closer ‘Across The Night’) to the swaggering Southern rock (‘Can’t Keep Him Down’) utterly their own.Even the soaring, stadium-ready hard rock ballad ‘Burning Up The Skies’ is reliably and recognisably, infused with The Rocket Dolls’ own solid, heavy grooves. Showcasing the band’s versatility by offering an anthemic change of pace at the album’s mid-point, the track will also serve as the next single to be taken from ‘Eyes’, when it’s released on July 21st.A video for ‘Eyes’, The first promo track from the album, has already made a major impact on the viewers of Scuzz TV, who voted it straight in to 8 in their new videos chart late last year, further propelling the song to number 4 a week later.With ‘Eyes’ The Rocket Dolls are setting their sights on the skies, and showing off the tenacity, and talent, to launch them far. Get set for blast off!
Album:
Brighton-based hard rock trio The Rocket Dolls are due to release their new full-length studio album DeadHead on Friday 6th April and will be taking it on the road for an extensive UK tour. Consisting of eleven tracks, DeadHead is the follow up to 2014 debut album Eyes. It was recorded at London’s British Grove Studios (David Gilmour, Mark Knopfler) and produced and mixed by Mark Roberts.Opener None Of This Is Right had me hooked from the first, thunderous note. This is an intense, attention-grabber of a song that sets the scene for the entire album. Beautifully dark, the riff-laden anthem recounts lead singer Nikki Smash’s recovery from illness and deals with a variety of deeply personal issues such as addiction, confusion and inner struggle.The record continues its contemplation of some emotive subject matter, focusing on revenge (She’s Starting Something Now and Trigger), depression and self-destruction (DeadHead), anxiety (She Said) and despair (Drowning). With a strong political theme, The Desperate reflects on modern day society and how we don’t always fully appreciate the importance and significance of the decisions we make. Tucked away in the middle of the record, The Last Thing On My Mind is a hidden gem.The album skilfully blends elements of heavy rock, grunge, punk and pop, with influences like Alice In Chains evident in places. We’re taken on an emotional rollercoaster ride, which is at times disturbing and at others reassuring.Wearing his heart on his sleeve, Smash exhibits a vocal prowess brimming with passion. Frank and thought-provoking lyrics amalgamate with monstrous riffs, thumping drums and melodic tunes, producing an unapologetically direct and relevant collection of songs that may well result in 2018 being a landmark year for The Rocket Dolls.
