    Raw and unbashedly noisy...it's Hatfield at her crankiest. "My Protegee" could be one of her best songs to date.

    I think this is one of Juliana's best albums. I'm sure it goes over the heads of those who just want to hear her cute little voice over some pretty music. She is so much more than that. The ideas in this album (lyrically) are amazing and are what make the album...scary white trash breeders!

    The music is occasionally difficult to embrace, to say the least...

    An unseemly, almost unnecessary foray into heavy metal and hard rock, especially in light of her success on the acoustic side.

    Messy, noisy, directionless, and painfully shy on both tunes and purpose... and winds up sounding a bit like a parody.
