 Killing Heidi: Reflector - PopMatters Music Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Ella Hooper is a star in the making not only for her incredible vocals, but also for her lyrical knack.
Although Killing Heidi is guided by the steady hand of producer Paul Kosky, the fact that all the songs on Reflector are from the pen of the Hooper siblings is evidence that such a courageous approach to their music is all their own work.
Killing Heidi may be too alternative for pure pop and too pop to be totally alternative, but this contradiction is precisely the reason they are popular in Australia, and the reason why I anticipate Reflector will repeat its Antipodean success in the US.
