Dolly's Pillbox, a four-person band, is fresh therapy for the music industry. Though the band is already two years old, "How Are You Today?" is their first album. Their music resembles thick black chocolate--sweet, yet bitter--as it soothes the soul and reduces your blood pressure. The lead vocal sings in an Indie-Pop style, murmuring the lyrics and expressing the shyness and sadness of a little girl. The CD kicks off with the creative "Sugar Boy", which jumps into your ears with a ceremony-like bugle melody played in video game style. Another song, "In Our Stillness", projects a drifting kind of loss feeling. "Blah Blah Blah" is composed with lots of clapping, and the listeners may find hard not to follow. If you're looking for a cure, "How Are You Today?" might just be it.
