The recording of the new Medications album, CompletelyRemoved, documents a new phase for the band with Chad and Devin covering all the writing and most of the instrumental duties following the departure of Becker. Happily both are accomplished multi-instrumentalists and are joined live and in the studio by longtime friend and musical swingman Mark Cisneros. Not surprisingly CompletelyRemoved represents a departure from the band's signature off kilter rockers. The advantage of being able to record and mix the album over several months at Devin s home studio, Treehouse, enabled the band to focus more time on arrangements and production. This is not to say Medications have lost their edge. In fact, the new material dives headlong into new musical territory with thrilling results.
