you're going to dig the rich, dark and driving sound
The result is a texturally rich rock record that is serious in nature but neither rigid nor precious in execution. It fluctuates gracefully between outwardly intense and ominously sedate, with a penchant for dramatic codas that build and explode. Its eight songs are sturdy and sharp, tied together by Cameron’s arresting vocals and a trademark wall-of-sound mix from longtime Yo La Tengo collaborator Roger Moutenot.
Songs shift between a flurry of guitar-driven grunge à la Hole (“I Was a Young Girl”) and haunting, syrupy goth (“Sitting With a Corpse”). But the message remains clear: A woman’s life is often full of brutal truths and experiences, and pushing through it all should be considered nothing less than heroic.
