"Babe Rainbow" is the third studio album by British indie rock band The House of Love. It was first released in July 1992 through Fontana Records. The musical work is produced by Warne Livesey, who had previously worked with the band on their self-titled album in 1990. The album features a more expanded and mature sound compared to the band's previous works, including several elements of neo-psychedelia and pop rock.
However, despite the positive reviews “Babe Rainbow” received from the critics, focusing on the band’s evolving sound and lead singer Guy Chadwick’s songwriting, it wasn't a commercial success. The lack of commercial achievement led to changes in the band's lineup and an overall shift in their musical direction in their subsequent works.
Nonetheless, several tracks from "Babe Rainbow" have stood out over time for their lyrical and musical prowess. Some noteworthy songs from the album include "Feel", "Cruel", and "High in Your Face". Featuring a blend of heavy guitars, crisp percussion, and Guy Chadwick's distinct vocals, these songs showcase the unique sound and style that The House of Love cultivated during their musical journey.
