"Sunburn is not only the Blake Babies' best album, it's in many ways the last great college rock album." — AllMusic

Listed as one of the best albums of 1990 by Brooklyn Vegan. This Boston trio were only together for five years but managed to crank out four albums between 1986 and 1990 and went out with a bang on this, their last album.

"One of the best indie rock records of the year, it's a real showcase for Juliana Hatfield as a songwriter and frontperson, though the band's sound couldn't really be pulled apart — guitarist John Strohm's unique style and vocals were an invaluable counterpoint to Hatfield's, and drummer Freda Love provided the group's strong backbone. Sunburn is just wonderful song after wonderful song, whether it's ringing indie rock like 'Out There,' 'Kiss and Make Up,' and 'Look Away' or affecting anthems like 'Train' and 'A Million Years.' It's no wonder that Juliana Hatfield went solo after this, but she never delivered a better batch of songs than these." — Brooklyn Vegan
