Shoulder Voices is the debut album by Rollerskate Skinny, released in 1994.
It led to an appearance on the 1994 Lollapalooza tour and a recording contract with Sire Records.
Trouser Press called the album "a fascinating and delightful debut that jumps easily from intimate indie tunefulness (the vocals sound like Pavement) to free-fire pop noise, with plenty of wild and wonderful textures along the continuum.
"[4] Washington City Paper wrote: "Mixing the sonic textures of My Bloody Valentine with the rich melodies of Echo & the Bunnymen and angular, runaway rhythms, Voices' layered brilliance was maniacally complex, immediately catchy, and refreshingly innovative.
"[5] The Times wrote that "for a generation of Irish music fans, the Dublin art-rock band Rollerskate Skinny's Shoulder Voices (1993) was as important as Nirvana's In Utero and Smashing Pumpkins' Siamese Dream.
