about
Tokyo Taboo are now ready to gather more friends and fans with the mind-blowing power of their new release, Whiskey. The track, a raw personal lament on Dolly's tumultuous relationship with alcohol, rages with the band’s trademark ferocity as whirring hooks race alongside tremendous beats. The immense power of front-woman Dolly’s vocals married with Guitarist Mickey Danger’s riotous riffs blast into your ears, propelling the track forward at break-neck speed. Of the track, Daggerz comments: “I wanted to describe how I'd become dependent on alcohol to feel ok. I got so used to drinking whiskey straight out of the bottle before jumping on stage. I thought being wasted was the only way I could perform as a riotous female. Turns out I never needed alcohol at all and that craziness lives in me!” Dolly, now sober for almost a year, says, "I was a walking emotional rollercoaster. High from the adrenaline of our show then so low the next day...I could see a nasty end for myself if I didn't pack it in."
lyrics
Whiskey I need you
Burn out my brain
Driving me crazy
Send me to my grave
Whiskey I need you
To numb the pain
I’m so lonely
Make me less afraid
Whiskey I’m broken
You’re my only friend
Sick as a dog
I need this hell to end
Whiskey I’d rather go blind
Blur my vision, on a mission, my decision
Blur my vision
Drown their rhythm, can’t listen, my addiction
Blur my vision
Is happiness at the end of the bottle I don’t wanna live another day
I need a break from reality, insanity, you’re gonna make a mess of me
Take me away
Whiskey I’m ugly
Feel like a freak
Doesn’t he see me?
Just leave me to bleed
Stuck in the shadows
You plague my mind
Trigger my sadness
Leave it behind
Whiskey I’d rather go blind
Blur my vision, on a mission, my decision
Blur my vision
Drown their rhythm, can’t listen, my addiction
Blur my vision
Is happiness at the end of the bottle I don’t wanna live another day
I need a break from reality, insanity, you’re gonna make a mess of me
Take me away
Woah oh woah oh woah oh oh la la la la
Woah oh woah oh woah oh
You took over my brain
My body was yours to take
But your arms are wrapped around her waist
Blur my vision, on a mission, my decision
Blur my vision
Is happiness at the end of the bottle I don’t wanna live another day
I need a break from reality, insanity, you’re gonna make a mess of me
Take me away
Woah oh woah oh woah oh oh la la la la
Woah oh woah oh woah oh
I need a break
Oh don’t wanna live another day
Found happiness
Reality insanity
You’re gonna be the death of me yeah
I need a break
Stuck in the shadows at the bottom of a bottle
Yeah hey hey hey
Baby baby baby baby baby
Take me away!
I'm not a fan of one certain type of music , I found Bad Pollyanna on bandcamp .
I listened to this album and right away they had me hooked the band is so tight and the vocals aren't straining to be heard . the seamless change in styles only enhances the expereance . Jim Fullerton
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
The hard rock band recorded this session live at KXLU 88.9FM in Los Angeles and it's now exclusively available on Bandcamp. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 27, 2020
I am seriously in love with the album cover! It had my name written all over it (Falling petals and pink and purple colors). Also, the song is empowering and pretty 💜 Living Dead Doll
