Olive’s “Senseless” is a wonderful chiaroscuro of the light, higher octaves achieved by Olive’s vocals and the darker, more resonating sound presented by the drums, bass, guitars, and the rest of the song’s instrumentation. Together they make for a timeless track, one that is able to feel current and contemporary while taking a goodly amount from 1960s pop and rock performers. Listeners will love the dynamic of the vocals and the strings, which push each other to higher plateaus. The track is taut and will stand up to repeat plays; so many things are happening here but Olive’s steady hand ties them up into a cohesive entity.
