Industry Reviews 3 Stars (out of 5) - ...There's a bit of everything....Griffin can be applauded for refusing to conform to the female singer/songwriter stereotype; the Lilith crowd should take note.
...Griffin isn't just another mutable member of the post-Lilith archetyping pool. Stakes are high in her scarred narratives, which emote with a muscular empathy; even her wistfulness seems road-toughened....her pop sense and chutzpah almost always wins out... - Rating: A-
