Press Reviews The Idols : Dressed to the Nines The Idols pay loving tribute to the Kinks with a version of "'Till the End of the Day" that sounds so fresh from the garage that you'll be checking the speakers for grease stains. The group gives that sort of charming, unpolished treatment to its own compositions, too, dousing the punk-edged title track with perky piano accents and giving "She Likes Me" a quickened-pulse drumbeat that brings to mind an excited schoolboy exclaiming the son's titular sentiments. And with two former "DragQueens" (Killer Kansas City Band) among its membership (guitarist/vocalist Scotti Fletcher and drummer Dennis Dunbar made up the male half of that outrageous coed quartet), the Idols offer a worship-worthy live set as well. pitch.com | originally published : 01.03.02
