"Nashville based singer-songwriter Adia Victoria is back once more. Returning for her third studio album - and the follow up to 2019's Sciences - soaked in blues and soul, this time Victoria has tapped into a rich vein of melancholy and moodiness for A Southern Gothic ... Overall, Adia Victoria has created an album that paints a picture of her influences and shows her clear talent for blending the old with the new".

"In exploring the South and its heritage so intimately, though, A Southern Gothic regularly falls into imitation. Clean sweeps of easy melody move between hushed acoustic guitar ballads and swamp rock that trades pedal steel for a sound resembling Seasick Steve's hubcap ... But there are highlights that compensate, and it's always because of Victoria's voice, lithely fluttering and toned like a jazz singer".

"With a fiery brilliance, A Southern Gothic subverts the title phrase. Victoria tells about the South from the perspective of Black women in a collection of mesmerizing songs that traverse the rawness of Hill Country blues, the country soul of Memphis, the urban rap of Atlanta, the spiraling layers of folk blues, and the sultry languor of smoky jazz. The songs unfold with a brutal intimacy and a steely energy that tells about Victoria's own South and the deliberate acts of injustice and unconcealed terrors that characterize the too-often accepted story of the South foisted upon history by white men".
