Consumer Guide Reviews:

Vivian Girls [In the Red, 2008]
Adoring Bikini Kill adoring the Go-Go's adoring the Ramones adoring Phil Spector ("Tell the World," "Never See Me Again"). **

Everything Goes Wrong [In the Red, 2009]
Noize-toon energy fights lo-fi breakdown to a draw ("Can't Get Over You," "I Have No Fun"). *
