May 29, 2012With spot-on production and their most engaging material yet, Grass Widow come into their own on Internal Logic, and have given themselves enough room to grow into something more vivid and lasting than ever before.
-
May 24, 2012The songs on Internal Logic are like triple-exposed photographs, their nebulous, hazy qualities occasionally belying the acute skill with which they've been composed.
-
Jul 19, 2012Internal Logic is admirable for the fullness of its vision, but ultimately can become overwhelming to listen to as a whole.
-
May 24, 2012The 11 upbeat, noisy tracks just fly by at under 30 minutes, but there are some notable highlights.

May 30, 2012The other moments here retread instead of reform, so while the trio's stubborn vision for their music is abmirable, its limitations become glaringly clear as you get to the record's end.
-
May 29, 2012While the dotty cant of Mahon's guitar playing skews in Sleater-Kinney's direction, Internal Logic is largely an exhibition of the dramatic power of restraint.
-
May 31, 2012Internal Logic pits fractious churn and friction against head-spinning harmonies, and here's the surprise, everybody wins.
-
May 24, 2012Past Time was mostly content to present Grass Widow's aesthetic--cooing, ethereal gang vocals, sinewy guitars, a general state of breeziness--as opposed to Internal Logic, where those things are part of far more memorable songs.

Jun 4, 2012If you're not paying attention, it becomes tough to tell if you've been listening to one really long song or three separate ones.
