Sputterdoll
Awakened by a spooky doll in the middle of one random night, Sputterdoll has been rocking the bay area since that damned hour. Certain doll parts needed a fix in the course of time and bouncing back in full form after each operation, Sputterdoll is one again, showing up in garages and clubs and everything in between.
The forces of the doll are backed by four unassuming everyday individuals who listen to deadly influences so that they can serenade you to sleep. The doll is on the loose and running around with its choice of musical weapons, not a care in the world where it ends up using them. And you would never guess, just by looking them in the eye, that they do what they do.
Bernadette: vocals, drums
Dennis: guitar, backup vocals

P.S. we're not horror punk. Just some ugly dolls begging for your love.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
The spooky doll originally called four girls for this mission. But experiment-001 did not work. Many more experiments later, a brand new team was formed, and this one seems to be working just fine, to spooky doll's delight. Within the different teams, 3 extensive tours along the west coast plus series of regional and state tours were achieved. Several records have been independently released, with another one on the way. Sputterdoll: built on DIY, living on DIY, will most likely die DIY--especially if that indie record hope dies before we do. Looks like we're not really waiting for that major record deal in a million fuckillion years.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes we haunt everyone just the same, and it's been very joyful. We go all over the west coast, look at our website for dates.
Your musical influences
Collective musical influences: Green Day (every band and their mama loves them, so do we), The Ramones, MxPx, Rancid, The Distillers, Weezer, The GoGo's, The Living End
What equipment do you use?
Loud drums, loud bass and amp, loud guitars and loud guitar amps. Some mics too.
Anything else?
Yes, we are ugly dolls begging for your love. If you hate ugly dolls, we probably wouldn't get along. On that note, you can *bleep* a *bleep bleep* llama on her *bleep* while the moon *bleep bleep bleep* as the *bleep* day rolls in!
