Album Review of "Bunnywood Babylon" by Jesika Von Rabbit (8/10)

Dionysus Records

Producers: Jesika Von Rabbit, Ethan Allen

Jesika Von Rabbit’s strength, or one of them, has long been her ability to dance between genres, dipping her toes into some while leaping right over others, in the process confusing and delighting in equal measure. Her blend of synth-pop, Americana and art-rock leans into the avant-garde while never sacrificing melody. There’s a glorious ye-ye girl quality about “Go Back to L.A.,” while elsewhere the much-missed Marianne Faithful seems to receive a sly wink. And there’s still space for a should-be synth classic like “Wacko.”
