Entertainment Reviews:
Rolling Stone - 5/2/96, p.54
3 Stars (out of 5) - "...combinations of three or four killer riffs and a juggernautlike groove....The effect is mesmerizing even though the tunes aren't stricily memorable..."Spin - 1/97, p.58
Ranked #5 on Spin's list of the '20 Best Albums Of '96.'Spin - 4/96, p.106
9 (out of 10) - "...the biggest, most contemporary sounding, and physically enticing hard rock anyone is offering....Fugazi, Big Black,...Sonic Youth...are some of the post-punk tributaries pop-alternative has largely passed by; Girls Against Boys' achievement is to show how the legacy of bands like these...wasn't insular avant-gardism but a revolution in how hard rock could sound, must sound, if it's to go forward..."Entertainment Weekly - 3/22/96, p.74
"Terminally tense singers and guitars that resemble low-speed power drills may be alterna-rock cliches, but these droners make those elements sound fresh and musical..." - Rating: B+Q - 4/96, p.109
3 Stars (out of 5) - "...further spit and polish to their patented murky swagger..."Alternative Press - 5/96, p.77
"...intense bites of depraved carnality that made women faint and men envious..."Melody Maker - 3/2/96, p.38
Recommended - "...it rips through you like Ebola, hypes the room, your head, the moment with electricity....GVSB's guitars are full-blooded, glaring, but they're always honed to a single zone of impact....their most on-the-money bolt of perfection yet..."NME (Magazine) - 3/2/96, p.45
8 (out of 10) - "...GVSB sound like some bizzare coital scandal waiting to happen, exuding tense sexual atmosphere like nothing this side of your local municipal library....a spot of sleazy shenanigans, courtesy of some devilishly suave US anti-heroes..."Tracks:
