"WOMAN play dark, confrontational, in-your-face noise-rock that sounds straight out of the Lower East Side, 1993. All of the songs here have layers and layers of guitar, howling, screaming, roaring, veering wildly in and out of focus, but the parts all manage to be in the right place at the right time. This album is like a splatter film that’s at least half suspense: there’s lots of gore, but they save it for when they need it. And then you get buckets."
- LUCID CULTURE
"THE BIG DISAPPOINTMENTS kill live, with a gut-quaking locomotive rumble of psych-rock riffs and rockabilly-voodoo beats. They are the sum of their four parts: a hurly-burly engine of desert-menace guitars, underlying bass trellis, and psychobilly stomp. . . you’re confronted by a soul-bellowing body blast that makes you forget the beer you just bought or the stranger you just met or the taxi your ignorant ass just called. Instead you think about strung-out drifters speeding along cactus-lined highways, truck-stop death-panic scenes, the Gun Club, Lux Interior and his leather pants."
- VILLAGE VOICE
"“Since 1981, Boston-based singer-songwriter-guitarist THALIA ZEDEK has been making excrutiatingly emotional rock music... Nothing draws as much blood as the work of this songwriter, one of the most painfully honest and brilliant anywhere.”
