Reception


Mark Deming of AllMusic in his review of The First One referred to the group as "three good-looking gals who can write great pop tunes with a dash of punk rock energy and girl group harmonies to boot" he goes on to call their songs "as refreshing as a tall glass of lemonade on a hot day". Deming does lament that "the production by Dave Rahn...could use a bit more body" but goes on to conclude "the music's good enough that you can play the album two or three times in a row without it wearing out its welcome". J. Edward Keyes of Rolling Stone refers to the group as "the new sound of old punk".
