Reviews
7 - Very Good - "...your appreciation of this meaty debut album will largely depend on whether you consider Kim Deal the Bitch Queen of Post-Nirvana Rock or a Mid-western housewife who got lucky...", 3 Stars - Good - "...THIGH's most piercing songs twist elements of punk and alluring pop around lyrics that explore the underbelly of the American psyche...", 3 Stars - Good - "...like a cross between Belly and the Stooges: churning guitar riffs and sweetly melodic female vocals. Less sloppy and characterful than the Breeders...just Pixies-by-numbers...", Ranked #8 in Spin's list of the '20 Best Albums Of '94' - "...fickle, playful melodies slither out of the tunefully rolling guitars so seductively....tunes twitch like rock'n'roll was always meant to twitch...", Recommended - "...Their debut album, awash with trembly guitars that ponder and deliberate each breath, is a delicious insight into the world of symptoms and cures that characterise the frailty of love and life...", "...Veruca Salt have their ears to the stereo, listening to crucial inflections and production techniques from the Breeders, and the art of the power chord from Nirvana and L7...", Highly Recommended - "...This band has it all...Between the force and variety of the duo's unison singing and the production's deliberate gravity, these songs orchestrate mood so expertly that they practically conjure a worshipful arena..."
