From 1989 to 1996, one band ruled the underground rock scene of central Illinois. Here in this ragged, tight-knit, all-ages network of Midwestern skate parks and legion halls — a time when punk and pop bands, ska and metal bands would all play together — they were our heroes.
With harmonies like angels and all the raw edge of punk, Dollface was a true band in every sense of the word, tapping our emotions with childlike glee, and backing up their willful abandon with a wicked sense of humor, stellar musicianship and refreshing lack of pretension. Their quirky pop tunes were the anthems of our youth. They were pop, they were punk, they were loud and snotty and silly, but mostly, they were rock n’ roll.
Despite a burst of regional success, Peoria’s answer to Urge Overkill, Cheap Trick and the Beatles never achieved the massive breakthrough that should have been theirs. But in this 20th anniversary year of Corvette Summer — the pilot lights once again.
