Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut album by Australian band Killing Heidi was written entirely by siblings Ella Hooper, who sings, and Jesse Hooper, who plays guitar, and recorded with producer Paul Kosky. Its singles 'Weir', 'Mascara' and 'Live Without It' frame a pop rock record whose adolescent lyric writing and melodic guitar arrangements made it a generational document of Australian alternative rock.
