Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 10/6/94, p.91
4 Stars - Excellent - "...Learning from its mistakes, the band has broadened its scope on BETTY, expressing emotional depth and musical wit along with brute strength..."
Spin
"While the basic Helmet song remains the same, singer-guitarist Page Hamilton's vocals actually have undergone an evolution, and a welcome one at that."
Spin - 8/94, p.85
Satisfactory - "...This is heavy metal without the theater, headbanging music for people without hair..."
Alternative Press - 9/94, p.74
"...BETTY, is filled with the crunch based power we've come to expect...a little chancey, yet undeniably Helmet..."
Musician - 7/94, p.89
"...BETTY blows the lid off the sucker, using hip-hop, hints of jazz, reams of speaker-altering noise and, unexpectedly, humor. Helmet have de-metallized metal..."
NME (Magazine) - 6/25/94, p.41
6 - Good - "...not only does BETTY betray a surprising sleight of hand in its shuffling of familiar components but it also has the sense to lob the odd ringer into the gig..."
