When Sean Beavan isn’t in the studio making Really Big Rock Records (his credits include Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, System of a Down and Guns N’ Roses), he’s teaming up with his significant other on significantly another kind of music. The husband-wife torch-pop of 8mm features the sultry vocals of his wife, Juliette, who vamps a little, aches a little and seduces a whole lot. Their new EP “Love and the Apocalypse” is less gauzy than the pair’s debut full-length, 2006’s “Songs to Love and Die By;” the haziness is all emotional, with Juliette cooing wearily (and warily) about what coulda been, what shoulda been and what was.
