02.12.2024-OLIVIA JEAN Bathub Love Killings (Third Man,2014)

 

INDIE / GARAGE ROCK


   Taking you from a jazz bar to a courthouse to the inner recesses of the mind of a jilted lover, Bathtub Love Killings wields an interesting variety of guises that aren't immune to faltering. Opportunities to light a spark in a song are missed in a fair chunk of this LP. The expectation of a bruising stomp or a pulsing crescendo goes unfulfilled on the jaunty ragtag of "Merry Widow" or the fiddles-and-all bombast of "Deadly Hex", sounding like a lost song from the Alice in Wonderland soundtrack. It's a quirky and bold record, that makes for an intriguing listen. The songs can sometimes sound too abrupt and unfinished, but Bathtub Love Killings still has its place as a curiously eccentric embrace of vintage girl groups heightened with a visceral guitar twang.
