Wallflower is the second and final studio album by the American grunge band My Sister's Machine. The song "Enemy" was included on the compilation album Hard Music, Volume 1 in 1994.[2]

Reception

Writing for The Chronicle, Joe Coyle praised Wallflower on its release, likening frontman Nick Pollock's vocals to that of a grizzly bear:

"The creature blindsides you with its mammoth paw and proceeds to beat the living hell out of you for 40-odd minutes. Yet, in the course of pouncing on your stomach, the beast occasionally pauses to offer you its thoughts concerning the state of its inner being, the external world, and the relationship between the two."[3]

Coyle then interpreted several tracks, calling them "point-blank and noncontrived" before finishing his review with the sentence, "The only thing we're left to wonder about is where the hell the band came up with that name."[3]
