    Hatfield does her moody, catchy indie-pop to near-perfection after so much practice (nine solo albums during the past 16 years), and entertaining examples abound here.

    Surprisingly vital.
  4. Under The Radar

    What Hatfield lacks in lyrical grace--she makes up in conviction. [Summer 2008, p.82]

    It's very different for Juliana. It's a great pop album, but without losing all of her integrity. It's done in a tasteful, artistic way and it's a really catchy album. The voice and guitars are unchanged. It's nice to have a slightly more modern sound to things.… Expand
