No, Virginia... is the second compilation album from American dark cabaret band The Dresden Dolls. It is scheduled for released in Europe on May 19, 2008 and in North America on May 20, 2008.[1] The compilation will be a companion piece to the band's second studio album, 2006's Yes, Virginia..., and will contain tracks left over from recording sessions dating back to 2003,[2] along with b-sides and tracks released on compilations. Amanda has emphasized that the unreleased tracks from Yes, Virginia... were left off the album due to issues with the flow of the album, and not with the tracks themselves.[3] Five tracks from No, Virginia... were recorded with Sean Slade in January 2008. The songs themselves were written years ago but had not been recorded until the session with Slade. One song from the album, "The Kill", has been made available for streaming on the band's MySpace profile. On April 4, 2008, the band began taking pre-orders for the album. Those who pre-order the album from the band will be able to download a live recording of "Glass Slipper" the week the album is released. The track might be one of the two live tracks the band considered adding to the album.
