While singer/guitarist Rebecca Gates and drummer Scott Plouf are the only musicians on their debut album, the approach isn't minimalist a la
Mecca Normal or some such band. They're a full-bodied rock group that happens to only have two members. That oddity factor aside, this is accomplished but fairly standard alternative pop/rock, a bit on the downbeat side at times, and not diverse enough to keep the interest level from dragging over the course of a full-length record. ~ Richie Unterberger
