Stolen Babies is a unique band because of their experimental sound; using influence from many genres and rock classics such as Oingo Boingo, Cop Shoot Cop, and Fishbone. The line up includes Dominique Lenore Persi, Rani Sharone, and Gil Sharone who all have very diverse and interesting musical backgrounds that further add to Stolen Babies already unique and experimental sound. Dominique Lenore Persi used to play with Indie/Folk Polka artist Horace Weintraub, while Gil Sharone has been a permanent member of classic Mathcore band, The Dillinger Escape Plan.
Stolen Babies has released two really well-received albums, "There Be Squabbles Ahead" and "Naught" along with a Stolen Babies EP and a 4 song demo. While not becoming a mainstream band in the metal scene, they have toured with bands such as Otep, Paradise Lost, and Lacuna Coil.
Stolen Babies has always stood out to me not only because of their touring history, but also the versatile influence from multiple genres that kept me interested.
One of my favorite Stolen Babies tracks is Filistata because of the Dark Cabaret influence in the music and how unique it sounded- like something right out of a Tim Burton movie.
