    In the grand scheme of things this is not epochal work. In the world of rock ‘n’ roll this is to the Rolling Stones or Bruce Springsteen as Chausson or Bridge were to Wagner or Mahler. But those lighter composers had their charms and pleasures, and with Herein Wild so does Frankie Rose.

    Except for the dissonant pep of Heaven, Rose’s careful vocals float among bittersweet synths for 37 minutes of dreamy Cure- and Bangles-evoking pop.

    Pop, but still an album for reflection. [Nov 2013, p.89]

    For the most part, it's an effective addition.... The only real snag here is Rose's voice, which sometimes sounds so detached as to be barely present. [Nov 2013, p.78]

    Frankie Rose still has great instincts of where her music should be going. She just has to trust them more.

    Those pop songs, [not the ones on Herein Wild,] confess everything and never apologize. Herein Wild just disappears.
