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.
-
While it's nice to have another Mary Chain record, what makes the record even better is the presence of Linda Reid.

Under The RadarThe best aspect of Sister Vanilla is Linda Reid's saccharine vocals. [Summer 2007, p.84]
-
UncutAmid all the dirty, clanging glam, there are unfinished moments. [Apr 2007, p.119]
-
Fans of the Mary Chain's Suicide-meets-Shangri-Las hijinks will have an immediate connection to Sister Vanilla's sweetly sinister sound, particularly when Jim or William steps up to the microphone to add his droning vocals.
-
The aesthetic may be anachronistic, but it's still compelling.
-
Q MagazineBoth the Reid brothers' nice and nasty sides are represented. [May 2007, p.128]

GiulioApr 10, 2007The vocals of Linda Reid are amazing but when Jim or William mumble their rhymes the songs fly away. At last the JAMC are back!!!
