  1. This is an organic, homegrown creation that sounds as though it's had a lot of time and love invested in it; lend an inquisitive ear and find yourself instantly besotted.
  2. Get Yr Blood Sucked Out is confident, psychedelic, hard-hitting, and the best noise they've made yet.
  3. It is Anita’s voice and fretwork that elevate the record. [#15]
  4. In turns, it's searingly honest and brutal... with interludes where everything turns fluffy. [19 Aug 2006, p.35]

    this CD is the unsung GEM of 2006. Not one track is unnecessary. Brilliant. Can't wait to hear more from Viva Voce.

    this album is not nearly as good as their previous two. it actually gives me headaches to listen to it. there's not much catchiness to it and is way too muddled. Expand
