STNNNG's debut album, "Dignified Sissy", was selected by the Minnesota Daily as one of the ten best local albums of this decade:

“Dignified Sissy” is blessed with album art that brutally and hilariously describes the music within. The cover, by the way, is men with rifles at war with vicious polar bears in the arctic; it’s a perfect metaphor for the music … er, sort of. A full-on punk guitar assault, “Dignified Sissy” features singer Chris Besinger sing-talking while the instruments do battle around him. It’s a poppier, funnier Black Flag record for Minnesotans.

Atmosphere, P.O.S., Low, The Plastic Constellations and Lifter Puller also made their list. You can read the whole story here.
