Reviews

“Dark, edgy, and to-the-point.” - Nylon Magazine

“A fascinating collective imagination emerges from the writers’ impressions and suppositions of Sonic Youth’s themes. Sex, loneliness, violence, puritanical conflict and black-magical realism and adolescent girls run throughout.” - Time Out Chicago
