Jaguar Love Artist Snapshot:

Formed by multi-instrumentalist Jay Clark from indie rockers Pretty Girls Make Graves, and bassist/guitarist Cody Votolato and vocalist Johnny Whitney from post-hardcore outfit the Blood Brothers, Jaguar Love makes intense, eclectic music. Formed when Pretty Girls and the Blood Brothers toured together, the members began working on a sound that blended a variety of influences, including punk, post-rock, glam, metal, and show tunes, defined by Whitney's extreme, high-pitched singing. The group signed to Matador and released an EP in early 2008. Their debut full-length, TAKE ME TO THE SEA, appeared later that year.

Review

Spin (p.118) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "With the Brothers' brutal bass and cubist hardcore squall swapped for sunny guitar strums and a steady beat, Whitney can be downright tuneful."
Alternative Press (p.156) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's the sound of three musicians playing to their strengths while challenging their songwriting style, resulting in a cohesive listen that holds your attention to the end."
Q (Magazine) (p.107) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Johnny Whitney yelps like the love child of Marc Bolan and Perry Farrell as guitarist Cody Votolato and drummer Jay Clark create a complex noise."
Clash (magazine) (p.113) - "Angst-ridden sing-a-long lyrics, some nice spiky riffs and the odd scream are the order of the day....TAKE ME TO THE SEA is energetic, catchy and unpretentious dance-punk."

Title Note

The first album from this band made up of Pretty Girls Make Graves and Blood Brothers members sounds, indeed, like an equal mixture of those bands' sounds. The insanity and vocal yelps of the Blood Brothers are tempered by the more straightforward punk-pop velocity of PGMG. Johnny Whitney's vocals screech and waver, giving the songs an alien energy despite the typical unintelligibility of his lyrics. "Highways of Gold" opens the record in a relatively comfortable vein, but elsewhere the band experiments with multiple styles, from the near-waltz of "Bonetrees and a Broken Heart" to the D.C. post-hardcore moves of "Jaguar Pirates." "Humans Evolve Into Skyscrapers" even flirts with hair metal and "Jump"-era Van Halen keyboard cheese, and on "My Organ Sounds Like...," Whitney channels his inner Prince.
