Reviews
3 Stars - Good - "...tough-minded, raw-edged power pop delivered with the best intentions....free, edgy, and completely without pretension...", "...the twelve songs that comprise this album operate in an entirely different realm; a realm defined by quick-fix popcraft and lo-fi rock textures...", 3 Stars - Good - "...raw, lo-fi fun...virtual slacker anthems...the sonic equivalent of a barroom brawl between Joan Jett and The Velvet Underground...", Recommended - "...The sound of Having One's S**t Together....Smart, lean, matter-of-fact....Kim Deal, as always, wears the fur of her vulnerability turned to the inside....a healthy dose of chugging, distort-o-mirror rock'n'roll, all squeals and amused belligerence...", 7 (out of 10) - "...slowly...it takes an insidious grip. And lo! Out from beneath the fuzz come the songs!....though PACER may be initially mocked as lazy, it is in fact a deceptively inventive record...", 7 - Flawed Yet Worthy - "...suffused with a strangely dislocated nostalgia, its melodies harking back...to some utterly classic yet indeterminate golden age of pop....the basic garageland sound is subtly inflected with sonic quirks, traces of almost dublike strangeness, and eerie vocal treatments..."
