I love this album. I mean, it's pretty near perfect. If I could marry it, I would. Or just have a long term casual fling, as long as it wasn't seeing anybody else. But of course it is. (Sob!). Caught these guys on Kimmel and was kinda intrigued by the two-piece thing and the songstress Annie Hardy who does this Don't-Look-At-Me-Look thing. So ordered the cd and didn't think much of it till I slapped it in the old cd player. Haven't listened to much else since. It's a really beautiful mix of moody ambience (or ambiency mood), melody and attitude. Not to mention funny. Ha Ha funny. What's great is that everybody tries to categorize the album and compare GD to some other group. I think we should stop that. Stop it right now. I think it would be more fruitful to compare GD to politicians. Or game show hosts. Or appliances. Say: GD is a bright beautiful gleaming (commas in there somewhere) toaster oven to the rest of the music world's bland and listless Tupperware. There isn't a weak track on here, dudes and dude-ettes. I dunno about all the "shoegazer"-this and Bloody Valentine-that. Whatever. I'm from L.A. and this is the kinda dark and dreamy music that makes you think of the Santa Ana's whistling down Sunset Boulevard around midnight, rustling the palm trees, the lights and lure of the Hollywood Hills just outta reach. Hardy's vocals/guitar are raw and beautiful, Calabrese's drums/synth are sharp and powerful. It's a great album. I'm telling you. If only it weren't so damn promiscuous.

While this album has some old stuff on it from the first album, the first two songs stand out. Close your eyes, listen to the second song, "cordial invitation".. tell me you do not hear guitars from MBV's Honey Power! It is worth buying for just this song... the rest of the album is less MBV and more straight rock ala Courtney Love if comparisons must be made. Annie Hardy might cringe that MBV's Loveless sold only about 200,000 copies.. but that direction is a valid one, at least for a couple of songs. This album is solid rock... girl rock if you prefer, and well worth a shot at the low opening price. And, you get some of the best material from the first album. Annie, and Giant Drag, come to Missoula! I will be there.

I have just written a review for Giant Drag's EP "Lemona"... Well, this is the important one, the LP, right? Here I go again... I love this album. I like bands with girls on vocals, I like silly lyrics, and I like lots of textured guitars. All of these things Giant Drag has in spades to offer. It's an album that makes me laugh with its lyrics yet it makes me play air guitar. Annie Hardy and drummer guy (forgot his name) surrounded themselves with good buddies/musicians and made a heck of an album! After that their recording label dropped them, which is a shame, because I'm still waiting for their second album and keep following the news on their MySpace page. Recommended for fans of Le Tigre, My Bloody Valentine, Nirvana, and good girl-fronted bands.

I just bought this so I could hear Annie say bad words. It's the same reason I bought Liz Phair about a jillion years ago. Nice, little rock and roll songs. They have a personality, which is more than I can say about most bands today. By the way, does anyone know Anne McCorkle? I think her name is now Anne Ward. Man, I sure liked her. I spent 4 days with her in the Spring of 1995. I still think about her. Should I just move on with my life? If you know her, ask her to call Chris. Thank you. Giant Drag, Giant Drag, Giant Drag!!

It's okay, I enjoy it. It's nice and raw but also has some sweetly refined touches. I don't listen to them much, but I did really like this CD.

This is such a great album, Annie is awesome. Really, every song on here is great and there are no fillers. Recommend.

I love the unique sound, not to mention the remake of Wicked Game! If you like the Killers, Dresden Dolls, My Chemical Romance, bands along that line then you'll like Giant Drag.

Rockiger Rock `n Roll
Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on February 9, 2011
Also Leute, hier ist Dampf unter der Haube und das erstaunlichste für mich ist, dass diese zierliche Sängerin, Annie Hardy, die ganze Band im Griff hat. Ob akustische Gitarre oder mit Strom drauf, egal. Es geht immer zur Sache. Ab und zu kilngt das ganze ein wenig nach alternativ Rock. Die Texte schließen auch sehr persönliche Geschichten mit ein. Ich mag es einfach, wenn Rock `n Roll nach dem klingt was er eigentlich ist: Einfach, Ehrlich und mit...halt Dampf unter der Haube. Kaufen, Anlage auf max. und morgen bei den Nachbarn entschuldigen.
