I'll review this as part of the GA cup.--Retrohead (talk) 18:36, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- Lead
- You can add studio in the infobox.
- Done --Niwi3 (talk) 22:44, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- It's not done correctly. The "recorded" parameter is used for date of recording, for example 10–20 April 1999. You have another parameter "studio" for the recording studio. See Template:Infobox album#Details.

- Do we know when bassist Gail Greenwood left the group? By the way, how is the bassist departure is related with Demetra Plakas being a longtime drummer?
- Do we know the exact budget in numbers? Relatively low is pretty variable term.
- What do you mean by relaxed songs? More ordinary lyrics, slower tempos, or something third?
- Slow and guitar-driven, with an indie touch. The corresponding source describes it as "relaxed and varied", which I think are appropriate and very descriptive adjectives. --Niwi3 (talk) 22:44, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- There are people who consider thrash metal a relaxing music, and there are plenty of people who find punk albums (such as this) to be noise. Relaxed can't be written as a fact, but having slower tempos can be.

- Background and recording
- Can you attribute the position of Gail Greenwood instead of calling him band member? If he is the bassist, describe Jennifer Finch as founding member.
- By "geographical difficulties" you mean traveling issues, uncoordinated schedules, or something else? The current description doesn't read quite well.
- Can you write it Slash Records and Reprise? When I first read Slash, I thought the GN'R guitarist released it.
- I would delete "for their fans". Every artist releases an album for fans to buy it.
- Other
- The prose in the remaining section seems fine. I'll might make a few edits on my own if I notice something that's easily fixable.
- I think it's safe, but it won't hurt to ask what kind of reference is Synthesis? Seems like a webzine, but I can't find other featured content on their website.
- It is a website produced by the Synthesis Network. I noticed that there is a Wikipedia entry for it, so I wikilinked it. --Niwi3 (talk) 22:44, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- Ok, no problem.

Thank you for reviewing this article. I think I fixed most of the points you brought up. Please let me know if there is anything else that needs to be fixed. --Niwi3 (talk) 22:44, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
