Not Too Soon by Throwing Muses

“'The Real Ramona' was Throwing Muses' last album before the departure of Tanya Donnelly, but she left them with the giddily brilliant 'Not Too Soon', three minutes of guitar-pop perfection. Donnelly's role in the Muses seems a little like Kim Deal's in the Pixies, in that they were ostensibly second-string songwriters who still managed to write some their respective bands' best songs (both sexy ladies, too!). So I guess you could say this is Throwing Muse's 'Gigantic', a blissed-out pearl among more angular material.”
