    It's slicker than anything Katy's done before – maybe not as long-term-lovable, but certainly worth living with for a while.

    Sees the Light ditches the brusque garage rock roots of Vivian Girls in favor of girl group-influenced pop, but a palpable aggression gives this sophomore effort an energy her debut lacked.

    This is a solid, sonically beautiful album.... [Yet] the problem with her quicker stuff is that, while pretty, it tends to sound all the same; you end up desperate for the chorus, so that you can tell one song from another.

    It does not do anything new or especially exciting, but what it does do it does very well indeed.

    Sees The Light is a decent solo effort, but for the casual observer it might be worth saving your currency for the next Vivian Girls record.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. Katy Goodman, desahogo en melodías. La bajista de Vivian Girls construye su segundo disco a base de sentimientos, inquietudes y decepciones. Solitaria difiere del punk acostumbrado con su trío neoyorquino; sus temas dóciles y líricas acostumbradas a lo sumiso.
