  1. Lullaby for Liquid Pig is deceptively potent; in just thirty minutes it divines your most closely held memories, guiding you farther and farther back with endless, heartbreaking choruses.

    Disturbing, intense and emotionally stark. [#5, p.89]
  3. Totally depressing and totally engaging.
  4. Does nothing if not cement her place as one of the most unique, intelligent and subtly disarming artists in music today.
  5. The devotion to setting such teetering to song is the album's strength. No matter the tune, Germano's pipes and strings swoon strong, hovering ominous and knowing like her floating magician's assistant body on the album's cover.
  6. Mojo

    She breathes the vocals as if she were drifting in and out of death's door. [May 2003, p.95]
