Thank Heaven for Little Girls (album)

Thank Heaven for Little Girls is an album by the American band Dwarves, released via Sub Pop in 1991.

Production
The subjects of the songs range from the macabre deaths of young ladies of the night in "Blag the Ripper" (inspired by the historical Jack the Ripper), to befriending Satan in "Satan", and to general selfishness in "Anybody But Me". "Dairy Queen" is inspired by being stranded at a local Dairy Queen restaurant in Missouri.

Critical reception
David Sprague of Trouser Press described the album as a "water-treading" release, and noted the band's shift to a metal-punk sound. The Washington Post opined that "the sex-and-violence themes of this calculatedly offensive California quartet ... are not especially enlightening, but their surprisingly melodic songettes are always invigorating." The Lancaster New Era deemed the album one of the 10 best of 1991, determining that "this slice-of-weirdness is hard as rock gets without veering into straight hardcore."

Matt Carlson of AllMusic stated that the album "reins in the disgust of Blood Guts & Pussy, as the Dwarves kick back for a celebration of pure evil."
