Recording edit
Pop Heiress was produced by John Agnello over five weeks at NRG Studios and Kiva West Studios in North Hollywood and Encino, Calif., respectively.[2][4] According to Tyson Meade:
We practiced those songs a ton, so once we put them to tape, they were burning. We were having a fabulous time. We were on Atlantic Records making a big budget record in Los Angeles At one point, John came to a session dressed as a pink bunny.[4]
Critical reception edit
Trouser Press wrote that "Pop Heiress is the Kittens’ finest album, thanks to a combination of strong hooks, masterful production (by John Agnello) and the confidence that goes with such assets."[5] The Washington Post stated: "From the delirious drama of 'Dive Into the Sea' to the T. Rexy shuffle of 'I Ride Free' to the punky attack of 'Sore on the Floor' and 'Burn You Down,' this is the Kittens' most consistent outing."[6]
