Reviews And Opinions Of
¡Viva Zapata!

Cover photo of ¡Viva Zapata! This gut-wrenching response to the drug-and-alcohol-related death of Stefanie Sargent, the guitarist for this all-female Seattle-based band — as well as to the unsolved murder of friend Mia Zapata of the Gits — is a howl of truth and clarity perhaps rivaled only by Allen Ginsberg. It's a moving acknowledgement of excruciating loss and a sheer celebration of life. It's driving yet grunge-free riffs and insistent but screech-free feminism also make it rather revolutionary.

— Entertainment Weekly Magazine

On ¡Viva Zapata! (C/Z), another all-female quartet, Seattle's 7 Year Bitch, shows similar commitment but less versatility and power. They get points for attitude. Maybe when they get to the promised seven years, they'll have skills to match.

— Playboy Magazine
