Internal Logic is the third and final album by Bay Area trio Grass Widow, released on May 22, 2012.[1] It was their first self-released album.[2]

According to Hannah Lew, the band "just wanted to write songs that had positive affirmations and were fun to play," after Past Time's focus on death and grief.[2] Lillian Maring said that "This record is us relaxing into what we want to be as a band."[3]

Reception

Pitchfork rated the album 7.7/10, praising the band's "total command" of their sound.[4] Consequence of Sound described the band as "a three-headed serpent of sugary harmonies," and criticized the band for offering a "mirror image of the band’s previous outings."[5] Spin rated the album 8/10, describing it as "A Slits and Shangri-Las summit where heavenly three-part harmonies dance atop jagged post-punk guitars."[6]
