"There is a great expression in her voice that is very sincere, deeply and strongly felt. My favorite songs are "Like The Way I Do" and "Bring Me Some Water". It is a worthy album to have in your collection."  Reply

"This has always been his best album for me, although 2010's self-titled album turned out to be about equally good. I love the lead track, the way that song kicks in from the tinny mono to full stereo. The first four songs are all great, and then "Murray" and "Closet" are the highlights of the 2nd..."  [+]  Reply

"While on 1998's TNT it seems like the drums are the instrument that everything is centered around and that we are focusing on the most, here on their debut it's all about the bass. There's some interesting stuff happening on the drums and other percussion instruments, like marimbas and stuff, but..."  [+]  Reply

"I bought this on tape (a really state of the art playing medium at the time!) and played it over and over back in the late eighties, great for driving to. Latterly I have got the CD and more recently what I really wanted, the vinyl. This is a blisteringly good album with some fantastic lead guita..."  [+]  Reply

"Didn't realize this was all one person, and she's FANTASTIC! Why is no one talking about her??? Especially now, in the age of St. Vincent, Brittany Daniels, and Mitski, I think Tash should be more than included in the convo for great female talent (or just great talent) among modern guitarists.

"A fun dance album. A lot of the tunes sound very similar, so it does get a bit tired after a while. But enjoyable if you're into latin club music. Bad Bunny seems to be a very big rising name in the genre."  Reply

"This is pretty impressive. It's heavy and raw. The vocals don't do much for me. But the guitars do. Really creative effects on the guitars throughout. They just sound all different kinds of heavy on here. At times this reminds me of a dirtier Tame Impala or a much heavier and cleaner Black Lips. ..."  [+]  Reply
