OLIVELAWN Sophomore Jinx! 1992

Olivelawn Biography

by Erik Hage

San Diego's Olivelawn gloried in brutal, sludgy SoCal punk, releasing two full-length albums in the early '90s before the members parted ways. The group's muscular sound was powered by singer Mike Olson's fierce delivery, the guitars of O (a.k.a. Otis Barthoulameu) and the rhythm section of drummer Eddie Glass and bassist Jonny Donhowe. The short-lived unit released their debut, Sap, on Nemesis Records in 1991, following that with the Headhunter release Sophomore Jinx in 1992. The latter was produced by Jack Endino (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Soundgarden). The group's sound displayed a clear debt to such predecessors as the Stooges, Black Sabbath, and the MC5. In retrospect, Olivelawn is important primarily because of O's membership. He would go on to form Fluf, a more successful punk combo that benefited from O's songwriting chops and heavy guitar sound. O was a pervasive presence on the '90s San Diego scene. Besides his membership in Olivelawn and Fluf, he also produced records, served as roadie for the Muffs, and was a published skateboard photographer, among other things.

(thanks Val!)



Biography

by John Bush
San Diego's Fluf play good-hearted punk-pop in the vein of Sugar and Dinosaur Jr. Guitarist/vocalist O. and bassist Josh Higgins had played in Olivelawn, but formed fluf in 1992 with a new drummer, Miles Gillett. The trio recorded a slew of seven-inch singles (collected on 1995's The Classic Years), but finally released a debut album on Headhunter/Cargo in mid-1993. The album confusingly had separate titles for each format (CD, cassette and vinyl), but is popularly known as Mangravy. Second album Home Improvements appeared early the following year, as did Compact Disc Is Weak. Waikiki followed in 1997, and a year later the group returned with Road Rage. I Know I'm Somebody followed in fall 2000. (Allmusic.com)
