Versions of modern performance

"The hours spent working on their sound definitely paid off, and the choice to keep the production streamlined and simple works. The lack of studio glop helps keep the record grounded and very real sounding, and Horsegirl are nothing if not authentic. They've tapped into the source of indie rock's greatness like few bands have been able to, and Versions of Modern Performance isn't merely a homage or a neat trick, it's another very strong, very satisfying link in the chain connecting past to present".

"Horsegirl's debut album more than delivers on the promise of the trio's early singles, which sound more like rough sketches in comparison to Versions of Modern Performance's fleshed out sound ... To call Versions of Modern Performance a promising beginning would be to sell short all that it accomplishes. That's not to say that pondering what comes next isn't a worthy exercise".

"Chicago's Horsegirl mines a loose-limbed indie rock sound on their debut album, with an assist from some members of Sonic Youth".

"Versions of Modern Performance viser et band, der på trods af kun tre års levetid og medlemmernes unge alder har helt styr på et både organisk og spændende udtryk. Horsegirl har i første forsøg begået et besnærende album, der kun vokser efter flere gennemlytninger og er en stærk kandidat til årets album ... Har tre teenagere indspillet en af 2022's stærkeste udgivelser?".
