BethH.Jun 30, 2009I found this album to be a big disappointment. It just seems rather dull and uninspired. I understand that Brody Dalle wanted to expand herself musically, and I do enjoy hearing a more melodic vocal style from her, but it just seems to lack the lyrical depth and the passion of her earlier albums.

Spinnerette also feels a bit overcooked at times, possibly because of the long time it took to make. At its best, however, Spinnerette shows what Dalle can do outside of the Distillers' context, and suggests that maturity and life after punk rock can actually be fun.

Where her former act just made sneering grunty fight-punk, Spinnerette have proper tunes, proper lyrics and proper choruses. Marriage to two proven master songwriters has probably helped. But whatever, it's a positive move.

We feel like we got sold herbal E and it didn’t even get us stoned.
