    A whole lot of fun to listen to.... Anna is one of this year's best records.
  2. Rolling Stone

    If you have any ear room for the likes of Liz Phair, Blondie, the Go-Go's or the Bangles, you'll be humming along with every song on Anna by the second chorus.

    Her solo debut... spruces up a vintage style--'80s SoCal new wave--with lyrical twists. [#8, p.126]

    Anna is nothing revolutionary, of course, and that dog. fans have certainly heard this before. But that same audience will most likely want to hear it again, as will anyone who believes female rockers don't need to choose between being a folky riot grrrl (Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams) or a mainstream maven (Meredith Brooks, Sheryl Crow).
