“Lead single of their 7” off Art Fag Records which drops 7/17, “Think of You” sounds like The Misfits and says something that sounds small but is actually big: that it’s scary to tell a boy that you love him because it’s hard—probably impossible in the long run—to guarantee that affection is mutual. It does this in less than three minutes, and when it’s over, you immediately want to relearn the lesson”   - Fader

 

“Think of You” is a Strummy heartbreaker that finds them in much less abrasive territory” - pitchfork

 

“If you swept up all the vegan muffin crumbs and other detritus from the Smell's floor, combined it with some sawdust from a dirtbag country bar where Merle Haggard once drunkenly two-stepped, and then threw in some tangy candy bits only found at a little corner store around the way from where Joey Ramone's grandmother lived, you'd have something like Bleached” -  LA Times

Vogue - "Formed in Nashville two years ago under a rather apt shroud of mystery and Internet chatter—and mentored by ex–White Stripes front man Jack White through his Third Man Records label—the Black Belles are rather hard to miss: They’re the same four femmes fatales (with matching pale-white complexions and oversize blackwitch hats) whom you saw backing up Stephen Colbert earlier this year when he premiered his single “Charlene II" ... However, now that their self-titled debut album has been released, it’s easy to see the group has more to offer than their well-coordinated black-on-black wardrobe. Jack White produced their album, and unsurprisingly his philosophy (which champions the gruffness of analog and vintage equipment over digitalized slickness) runs deep through every song."

Consequence of Sound - "The band - comprised of bassist Ruby Rogers, drummer Shelby Lynne, synth player Lil' Boo, and guitarist/vocalist/organ player Olivia Jean - create a dark blend of '60s garage rock and soul with a modern twist. And that's without mentioning their Hocus Pocus clothing style."
