Adventure is the first album by the New York City alternative rock band Furslide, released in 1998.[4] It was produced by Nellee Hooper.[5]
Critical reception
The Washington Post gave the album a mixed review, writing that singer/guitarist Jennifer Turner "has a strong, expressive rock soprano, and Hooper wraps her songs in a dizzying psychedelic-synth-pop swirl. The problem is the songs, which have neither memorable melodies nor coherent lyrics."[6] The Austin Chronicle called it "an excellent introduction to pop's latest dynamic frontwoman: Jennifer Turner, a thoughtful songwriter who's perhaps the best female guitar hero since Jen Trynin."[7] Spin wrote that it deserves to be a "pop hit."[8]
