The Dandy Warhols are a four-piece band hailing from Portland, Oregon. Formed in 1994, the band consists of Courtney Taylor-Taylor, Peter Holmstrom, Zia McCabe and Brent DeBoer. They've run the gamut from psychedelic rock to power pop, with the occasional rockabilly tune thrown in.They are one of the two featured bands in the documentary Dig!, which examines the band's love/hate relationship with The Brian Jonestown Massacre. The film depicts the Dandy Warhols as the stable, happy and successful shadow of the mad artists in BJM. Taylor-Taylor provides the narration. A 20th anniversary extended release of the movie, named Dig! XX premiered in January 2024 at the Sundance Film Festival. | |

Dirty Old Man | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_267ce120 | comment |
Some would say the Come Down version of "Minnesoter" is an improvement over the original demo version, especially with the lyrics "I saw my baby dance a Latin number with her shirt off... but in a mood, she'd rather if I jerked off". The original had the next line go "When she moves, I really wanna jerk off" and the singer sounded like a Dirty Old Man, but in the new version, he sounds more cartoony and like he's trying to emulate Neil Young. | |

Vocal Evolution | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: Courtney started out with an average tenor-esque voice on songs like "Not If You Were The Last Junkie on Earth", then years of smoking and drinking took their toll and deepened his voice to a baritone for songs like "Bohemian Like You", but he could still hit the falsetto high notes for "You Were the Last High" and "Plan A", until he lost his voice, and never got the high range back. He still sounds fine singing low baritone, but singing near the top of his chest voice sounds gravelly and forced. For songs in falsetto, either he sings them an octave (or several) lower, or gets Brent to sing the high notes. | |

Vocal Dissonance | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_3a88a563 | comment |
Vocal Dissonance: Courtney, whenever he's singing falsetto on songs like "Plan A" or "We Used To Be Friends". That high voice doesn't seem to fit his tall frame. See also his cameo in Veronica Mars singing "Love Hurts." Largely gone due to the fact that he can no longer sing falsetto. | |

Shoegazing | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_4205352 | comment |
Shoegazing: Started out as a fairly shoegaze-influenced band, which is most evident on Dandys Rule OK with songs like "Ride", "Not Your Bottle", "Dick", "Nothing (Lifestyle of a Tortured Artist for Sale)", and "It's a Fast Driving Rave Up With The Dandy Warhols Sixteen Minutes". Some of their later tracks like "Be-In", "Hard On for Jesus", and "Nietzsche" fall under it too. | |

Non-Appearing Title | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_67784113 | comment |
Non-Appearing Title: "Not If You Were The Last Junkie On Earth", which many people call the "Heroin is so passe" song. Also "Plan A", "Hard On For Jesus" and "Love Is The New Feel Awful". "All The Money Or The Simple Life Honey" almost averts the trope with the chorus "I can tell you, for the money, the simple life, honey, is good". Also with "Horse Pills" (the lyrics mention "horse-sized pills"). | |

Epic Rocking | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_74149c93 | comment |
Epic Rocking: "It's A Fast Driving Rave-Up With The Dandy Warhols Sixteen Minutes." The clue is in the title. Other epic rockers of note include "Genius" (6:08), "Dick" (8:07), "The Creep-Out" (8:59), "Be In" (7:00), "You Come In Burned" (7:22), "Love Is The New Feel Awful" (9:36), "A Loan Tonight" (11:49), "Valerie Yum" (7:01), and "Musee d'nougat" (14:46). Every song on Tafelmuzik Means More When You're Alone, with the shortest track being "The After Bath" at 7:25 and the longest being "It's the End of the World as We Know It and I Feel Bored" at 36:43. | |

Re-Cut | |
| The Dandy Warhols (Music) / int_c3ae004a | comment |
Re-Cut: Russell Elavedo originally mixed the 2003 album Welcome To The Monkey House, but Capitol Records had it given a glossier mix by Peter Wheatley without the band's permission and released that instead. In 2009, The Dandy Warhols released the album as originally intended under the title The Dandy Warhols Are Sound: Aside from the different mix, the tracks are presented in a different order, the song titles are sometimes slightly different, and the song "Welcome To The Monkey House" itself is cut, while the previously unreleased song "Pete Int'l Spaceport" is added. Some would say the Come Down version of "Minnesoter" is an improvement over the original demo version, especially with the lyrics "I saw my baby dance a Latin number with her shirt off... but in a mood, she'd rather if I jerked off". The original had the next line go "When she moves, I really wanna jerk off" and the singer sounded like a Dirty Old Man, but in the new version, he sounds more cartoony and like he's trying to emulate Neil Young. | |

Shout-Out: The video for "You Were The Last High" is styled after Duran Duran's "Planet Earth". Rumor has it that Courtney Taylor-Taylor (a.k.a. Courtney A. Taylor) doubled his last name as a tribute to the band as well. | |
