    I love how immersive the songs are. I feel that at the same time I scream my anger out I feel embraced by the sounds. It's a safe place for me to feel sad, anxious, frustrated, angry and not feel judged, but represented. I've never felt so represented with a song, a sound, a concept, a lyrics and a story. when I finish listening to this album it's like I've put all the bad inside me out,I love how immersive the songs are.

    Death of a Cheerleader is a cohesive, emotionally affecting work. With this album, Mia Berrin solidifies her place among the newest class of indie stalwart songwriters, carving out this space in a fearless and vulnerable way.

    This is rager music, the fun and frantic rock anthems that the weirdos and the geeks who have grown into successful entrepreneurs and innovators can dance to while the quarterback from their high school bags their groceries.

    Equally indebted to pioneering girl groups as well as her punk heroes, the album is a fiery and compelling—albeit slightly uneven—exploration of love, anger, and coming-of-age.
