Reviews Customer Reviews for Eight Arms To Hold You Defiant Rating: Okay, sure, I've got my own little narrative going with respect to this album. I think people were telling these two women for too long that they couldn't do this and couldn't do that, and they took it upon themselves to tear those arguments down lyric by lyric and chord by chord.
Think Hole, or The Breeders, obviously, but I hold "Eight Arms To Hold You" in higher regard. Sleater-Kinney's "Dig Me Out" may be better yet -- but only just, and this album is surely the more accessible and the more meticulously assembled of the two.
This one stands the test of time. I understand why it has been written off by some reviewers, but if you enjoy humor and harmony and angst and big loud guitars, you might want to give it a try.
Customer Reviews for Eight Arms To Hold You Cd Exceptional Rating: This was a great record. Even better than the first record that was also quite good but simply better than the EP "blow it out". This is really exciting pop-punk with beautiful female harmonies.
Editorial Reviews for Eight Arms To Hold You Audio Cd Amazon.com There's more of producer Bob Rock (AC/DC) here than the feisty band that recorded Seether two years previously. That's a good thing on the single "Volcano Girls," complete with its squealing guitars and "I Am the Walrus" nod. Titles like "With David Bowie" and "Venus Man Trap" are the best thing about the rest of a rather one-dimensional package. --Jeff Bateman
