Her voice is amazing and powerful, and the lyrics are empowering. She doesn't have the typical "angry chick" type of music, but it is strong and is just as noticable. It's fun to dance to the beat and is always exciting.

The previous reviewer got it right - Chick Graining is male...

I think that I prefer Laughing Down The Limehouse to this album but also that's a little bit like saying that I prefer Champagne and Lobster to Filet Mignon and Bordeaux.

My biggest regret so far in this life was working late one night (in London, England) instead of taking a friend's advice (Hey Chas!) and going to see Anastasia Screamed.

If you have Dinosaur Jr., Pixies, or even Deep Purple Made In Japan in your record/cd collection then you'll like this music.

I don't have any idea how you would dance to it though...

This is a great album, but the previous reviewer's reference to a female leads me to believe he has this confused with a release by pop singer Anastasia...or something.

Chick Graning's intense vocals would never be mistaken for a female, and the dark, guitar-driven music of the album would have little appeal to anyone looking for pop music.

Highlight here is inclusion of backing vocals by Tanya Donelly, which, delicate as they are, blend nicely with Chick's.

Long out of print and hard to find but well worth the search.
