    While the result doesn't justify the buildup, there is no doubt that frontwoman Brittany Howard is a major talent.

    [Boy & Girls] casts Brittany as a soulful singer, but the album is more Xerox copy than feel and spirit based. [May 2012, p.86]

    Their roots are just that--roots, not anchors, allowing the group to grow, often in unexpected and quietly thrilling ways.
