American Thighs

Spin (12/94, p.76) - Ranked #8 in Spin's list of the '20 Best Albums Of '94' - "...fickle, playful melodies slither out of the tunefully rolling guitars so seductively....tunes twitch like rock'n'roll was always meant to twitch..."
Rolling Stone (11/3/94, p.100) - 3 Stars - Good - "...THIGH's most piercing songs twist elements of punk and alluring pop around lyrics that explore the underbelly of the American psyche..."
Spin (11/94, pp.92-93) - Highly Recommended - "...This band has it all...Between the force and variety of the duo's unison singing and the production's deliberate gravity, these songs orchestrate mood so expertly that they practically conjure a worshipful arena..."
Q Magazine (11/94, p.127) - 3 Stars - Good - "...like a cross between Belly and the Stooges: churning guitar riffs and sweetly melodic female vocals. Less sloppy and characterful than the Breeders...just Pixies-by-numbers..."
Melody Maker (10/8/94, p.38) - Recommended - "...Their debut album, awash with trembly guitars that ponder and deliberate each breath, is a delicious insight into the world of symptoms and cures that characterise the frailty of love and life..."
New Musical Express (10/8/94, p.43) - 7 - Very Good - "...your appreciation of this meaty debut album will largely depend on whether you consider Kim Deal the Bitch Queen of Post-Nirvana Rock or a Mid-western housewife who got lucky..."
Alternative Press (11/94, p.103) - "...Veruca Salt have their ears to the stereo, listening to crucial inflections and production techniques from the Breeders, and the art of the power chord from Nirvana and L7..."
