French Vanilla’s sound is well crafted, quirky, and danceable post-punk with the heaviest dose of the Slits. Vocals are sultry and deep but Sally Spitz’s range can take it to the most deliciously uncomfortable shrill on a whim. Lyrics are unapologetically feminist, about the (at times) awkward reality and glory of womanhood, with “Carrie”—a song about a young girl getting her period—being one of my favorite songs on the LP. It’s all very weird and luscious. –Camylle Reynolds (Danger Collective)
