"Sublimely accessible acoustic/acapella harmonies coupled with the most sensible, straight up (and equally accessible) feminist lyricism. And don't let that put the boys off - for a start, I doubt theres no-one out there who won't groove along to 'Masturbation Song' (certainly I'm happy to, and besides, songs as tender as 'Treat Yourself Gently' are for everybody. From the folk of 'Final Cry' to the stunning blues of 'Au Revoir', there's much to explore." - Andrew Stafford, Time Off Magazine.
