recovery council is the analog and digital synth-laced, solid state noise-dotted, guitar-wrapped work of, uh, me.
recovery council released a CD way back in fall 2003 called Advent 619 (the bionic milk plant records), a collection of poignant stories with a touch of wry humor about a robotic engineering accident. It is still available at CD Baby and the bionic milk plant website ( www.bionicmilk.com ).
Jangly, lush guitar work, sweeping string synths accompanied by smatterings of beeps and noises, deadpan vocals spattered with...uh, parody-quality passion, and electronic drums reminiscent of robotic limitations give this album sonically grandiose yet smackingly human qualities. The quirks of homestyle production add to its raw yet dreamy splendor. Can we talk about something else now? My attention span is fading fast - let's just call it homemade space junk.
As of 2006, after a long, long hiatus, recovery council has been somewhat resurrected in another form and a follow-up could occur any old time. Whee!
