Press
* Dollheads - without hesitations, this project is unprecedented for Ukraine. It seems that never before has there existed such talented electronic-rock music with the European sound - and here it is - a real discovery of the festival.
* Dollheads, a young and upcoming Ukrainian semi-electronic project, has presented original and specific material. The guys like to try something new, and their experiments are always excellent. The audience found their music new and strange, and therefore it was taken somewhat inadequately.
* As for the band - this is a creative union of thoughts, skills, and aspirations of the vocalist Vladyslav Halynskyi, drummer Prozorov, who is also the frontman of the band Tol, guitarist Serhiy Koliakov, and bass player Dc. The music of Dollheads is pumping, as they call it. You become addicted to the tracks the very first time you hear them. The music is uncomplicated for perception and mind. The clear rhythmic picture and lyrical independence of the vocalist give each song an individual colouring, which can change dynamically independently of the state of the group members. At present, Dollheads is trying to emerge in a more comprehensible form, give out something, and fix the situation with the concerts. If the guys manage to do this, Ukraine will get one more of the original, conceptually rich groups, which are not so many, as of today. @MUSIC television

History
DOLLHEADS is a side project of one of the Ukraine's most popular gothic formations - NECROPOLIS. In the beginning of the 90-ies NECROPOLIS was the first and the only gothic rock group in Ukraine combining gothic rock and dark wave with the ethnic elements and English lyrics created by Vladyslav Galynskyi. The Ukrainian Gothic Portal began cooperating (partial info-producing and promoting) with the band in 2000. In 2003, during the first part of the "Ukrainian Gothic Compilation", NECROPOLIS presented its track "Ukrainian Gothic", which became the theme song of the CD and incited the interest towards the group on the part of the international audience. In 2004, upon the suggestion of the Poland's largest underground labels SPV POLAND and BIG BLUE RECORDS, the track "Challenger" was included in the collection of the Eastern Europe's best gothic groups "DARK EAST" (together with KOMU VNYZ and GRAY/SCALE), and was recognized as one of the most original songs.
