    Disappointing. I guess not even a genius like KH can release two completely different albums at the same time. Wish she had focused on one or the other. KH and the boys can still let 'er rip, but the songs are not up to KH's usual brilliance. The best thing I can say about this album is that at least it's not Red Heaven.

  1. Their loudest, noisiest, most immediate album yet -- and it's one of their best.
  2. Throwing Muses are the counterpart-- or maybe the antidote-- to the driven, enraptured solitude of [Hersh's] solo material; they deliver a release and an excitement that's been missing from her work for years.
  3. This is an album that's tough to love but impossible to ignore.
