Overlooked pop highlights that are worth remembering
"Will Chuck Cleaver ever get his just due? Here's hoping so. The Cincinnati songwriter with the piercing Neil Youngish voice may not name his bands in the hopes of mass appeal, but he sure can write darkly funny, rough-around-the-edges, slightly droney indie rock songs. Better still, he's found a partner in Lisa Walker, who writes and sings them just as well as he does, and who steps up as the star of this sterling sophomore follow-up to 2005's Funeral Dress."

Brian Baker's Top 10
"It's the best kind of scary to think where they'll go next."

Go Pogo Top 10 for 2007
So catchy, so distressing. Every song a single … the best sophomore release ever.

Cleveland Free Times (OH)
Brian Baker's Top 10 
Most bands couldn't manage an album this chaotically focused and brilliantly unnerving by their fifth or sixth try.

Cincinnati CityBeat (OH)
Mike Breen's Best of 2007
"Chuck Cleaver and Lisa Walker´s voices couldn´t be more different, but because they´re both singular instruments in their own right, together they create an engrossing duality. That holds true for Wussy as a whole - it seems to be a collection of misfit players and sounds that, when brought together, create something grittily gorgeous and magnetic. Sophomore slump? Not by any standards." 

Cleveland Free Times (OH)
Kurt Hernon's Top 10
On which Chuck Cleaver and Lisa Walker stake their claim to being the new alt George Jones and Tammy Wynette. The songs are as sharp as can be, the vocal performances flawless and positively (David) Lynch-ian.
