Broaddrick's accusations are sordid. On a business trip to Little Rock, she and Clinton planned to meet in a hotel coffee shop to talk. To avoid reporters, he suggested they talk in her room. After a brief conversation, she claims, he pulled her onto the bed and forced her to have sex, biting her upper lip and causing it to bruise and swell. Clinton then told her not to worry because, as a result of childhood mumps, he was sterile. The last thing Clinton said as he put on his sunglasses and walked out, according to Broaddrick, was that...

...songs on this new album come at you like an intervention: there is venting, there are surges of emotion, but, all said, the goings-on have a determined focus. Here the rock trio displays new command over its material: there are a few songs that are more about velocity than impact, but singer-guitarists Corin Tucker and Carrie Brownstein play off each other well both instrumentally and vocally.

In fact, this cerebral album itself is a striking countermelody to the junk that now passes...
