Between the Eyes


Between the Eyes is the debut album by Seattle-based rock band Love Battery. Sub Pop Records had initially released a single titled "Between the Eyes" in 1989. Tupelo Recordings then released Between the Eyes as an EP/mini-album in 1990. Sub Pop then solely released the final version in 1991, which expanded the album with three additional tracks.

Critical reception

The single landed at No. 36 on Paste's list of the "50 Best Grunge Songs"; Paste called the LP "a stripped-down, gut-churning collection of gritty guitars and vox." The Stranger wrote that the LP, and its follow-up, Dayglo, "remain psychedelic twin towers" in the catalog of Sub Pop.
