    Over polished (although I love many of the guitar tones), catchy, well written, and in some ways reminds me of Kiss' Unmasked and Motley Crue's Too Fast For Love. Is that heresy for an "indie band" ?

    Not a bum tune in the bunch. I think the songs are catchy, persuasive and very listenable. I loved Jennie Bomb, but I think this is much stronger.

    Not quite as good as their previous efforts. Feels a bit over-produced. Same thing happened to The Donnas on their latest.

    Of all three albums to date, none seem to live up to their electrifying live performance. [#7]

    It's not that the foursome have truly lost their claws--they're just keeping them retracted, the better to surprise you with as they lash out on tracks with the old vitriol. [#11, p.97]
  3. Slick, well-constructed and mall-friendly.
