The Donnas Gold Medal

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Like the Olympics? Ever wished it had some better tracks backing it, though? So, apparently, did The Donnas. And perhaps that’s why they named their 2004 album Gold Medal.

As is standard with their music, Gold Medal is a collection of uplifting hard rock songs made to boost the ego of the girls and generally make people feel all right (while still feeling a trifle badass, of course). One of the album’s singles subsequently served as background music for coverage of the U.S. women’s snowboarding team in the 2004 Olympics.

Featuring such hits as Friends Like Mine, Don’t Break Me Down, Is That All You’ve Got For Me, It Takes One to Know One, Revolver, Have You No Pride and the aforementioned Fall Behind Me, Gold Medal is a must-have for any fan of rock and roll that follows more classic conventions.
