"A superstar is born: The Suffolk artist's songs of the frenzy of young love are light, free and fun, carried effortlessly by her undeniable personality ... After finding an audience on TikTok during the pandemic, Dylan seeks to differentiate herself from her peers through her humour; she embraces and often lampoons her own independence ... This is a major label debut with unfiltered personality in abundance, a rarer commodity than it should be today in UK pop".

"Dylan has made herself comfortable in the niche of dance-along, chick flick pop - but it's where she diverts from this sound that she truly shines. Across this debut mixtape, rock'n'roll influences from a childhood with her dad have diluted to give Dylan's pop a grittier edge. Laced with snarling guitars and powerful drums, they particularly come into their own on "Blisters," a lament about unrequited love. Although the track's pop commitments soften the blow, the chorus is still gut-punching in both its sound and its honesty".

"In a post-Olivia Rodrigo pop landscape where Paramore are a new generation's most influential band, 23-year-old Natasha Woods, aka Dylan, makes a lot of sense. Like Rodrigo, the Suffolk-born singer-songwriter turns failed relationships into messy anthems, often dismissing no-mark exes, or clamouring for emotional parity, over stadium-sized, pop-punk tornados ... A fan of AC/DC, Aerosmith and Guns N' Roses when she was growing up, Dylan bolts big, chunky guitar riffs and even bigger choruses on to songs that occasionally scuff up this debut mixtape's pervading pop polish ... You can't move in 2022 for pogoing pop-punk upstarts, but here Dylan stakes her claim as the most convincing of the bunch".
