Music Reviews of Gun Shy Trigger HappyMusic Review: *The* overlooked gem of 1998 Rating: 5 Stars
An absolutely superb album of finely crafted pop-rock, leavened with a handful of gorgeous ballads with sparse, hip-hop influenced backing tracks that, for once, sound right rather than trendy. The lyrics are heartfelt and insightful, and on the closing track, "Rang You and Ran," they rise to a Liz Phair-like level of brilliance. Why this didn't sell a million copies is a complete mystery.
Music Review: My Favorite Album from My Favorite Female Artist Rating: 5 Stars
I'll keep this review short and sweet: I bought this cd when it first came out in 1997. There hasn't been a week that has gone by since then that I haven't listened to most or all of this superb sophomore effort. Unfortunately, it was also her last. She's so musically gifted it's hard to believe she is done with it all. Our loss.
Music Review: terrific album Rating: 4 Stars
This is a terrific release from the reclusive Boston singer. She has a knack for harmony and an epic fullness in her songs. Lyrically they are intense yet clever, and often biting. No sappy or sophomoric Jewel/Imbruglia nonsense here--Trynin writes pop tunes with punch. Intelligence required. J. Rosenfeld
Music Review: Very good pop Rating: 4 Stars
Getaway (February) is one of the best pop songs I have ever heard, and I've heard a lot! The composition, vocals, lyrics, production and overall vibe screams hit, hit, hit! It's pop perfection. The rest of the CD is strong pop music. Jen Trynin should be huge.
