  1. Little Pop Rock's acid-casual serenades... could've featured on any Mary Chain album from Darklands onward. And that's a comment on both the songs' lack of deviation from the JAMC's Sunday-morning-Velvets songbook, and the songs' consistent quality and unhurried charm.
  2. While it's nice to have another Mary Chain record, what makes the record even better is the presence of Linda Reid.
  3. Under The Radar

    The best aspect of Sister Vanilla is Linda Reid's saccharine vocals. [Summer 2007, p.84]

    The vocals of Linda Reid are amazing but when Jim or William mumble their rhymes the songs fly away. At last the JAMC are back!!!

    Take it for what it is. Sounds a lot like JAMC, as it should for obvious reasons, but it is not a Jesus And Mary Chain album proper, so keep Take it for what it is. Sounds a lot like JAMC, as it should for obvious reasons, but it is not a Jesus And Mary Chain album proper, so keep that in mind. Having said that, it is a great recording if you like this particular flavour of rock. Full Review »
