    Blatant Queen rip-off Heaven Knows is fun, but it all goes wrong when she breaks out ballads. [Apr 2014, p.116]

    The Pretty Reckless seems to have tried too hard to come across as outrageous. It's got every contrived reference possible along with clips of brainwashing television sermons and sound bites recreated from cheap porn. [Apr 2014, p.93]

'Going to Hell' could be better and more creative, but TPR got on the same thing, with lyrics just a little more heavily. 'Burn' is the TOP on the album, its all. Expand
