Springtime Carnivore

"Bag navnet Springtime Carnivore gemmer sig den amerikanske sangerinde Greta Morgan, der, hvis man skal tro på den fantasifulde biografi, har en fortid som linedanser ... Debutalbummet er en legende let affære med sukkersøde melodier og en Motown-girlgroup-vibe, som det er svært ikke at blive glad i låget af ... Den sidste halvdel af pladen taber desværre lidt momentum, men hele 14 numre af denne art naivistisk candypop er måske også lige for sødmefuld en mundfuld".

"While much of Springtime Carnivore walks in a Twilight Zone between indie pop and clever appropriations of the past, Morgan does manage to reveal a personality of her own over the course of these 14 tracks, and she comes off as clever, confident, and a sure hand with a tune on this set, while her voice suggests a meeting between Dusty Springfield and Kate Bush (if her voice has less range than the former, she's thankfully less melodramatic than the latter). A smart and resourceful exercise in pop that works on several levels".
