Leaner and more intricate than their earlier releases, this record is remarkably confident and mature, the vocals are even more ferocious, the melodies are even more infectious and the ideals are even more passionate. A Kill Rock Stars Records release.With their two-guitar interplay and scrappy rock-goddess assault, Olympia, Washington, gave us the highly touted Sleater-Kinney who created something nearly impossible in 1997: a truly dynamic and vital punk album. Moreover, they're one of the only bands going that can dip into completely non-ironic, celebratory rock convincingly.
Dig Me Out marks the point where the trio graduates from being a riot grrl band to simply being among the best rock groups around. --Roni Sarig
Paradigm-shifting. After listening to this, I feel like I'll spend the rest of my life responding to mediocre punk albums by thinking 'man, I could be listening to Sleater-Kinney instead right now'.
