COUNTING CROWS – Recovering the Satellites Vinyl

Description

For their second album, Recovering the Satellites, Counting Crows crafted a self-consciously challenging response to their unexpected success. Throughout the record, Adam Duritz contemplates his loss of privacy and sudden change of fortunes, among other angst-ridden subjects. In one sense, it’s no different from the subjects that dominated August and Everything After, yet his outlook is lacking the muted joy that made ‘Mr. Jones’ into a hit. Similarly, the music is slightly more somber, yet the approach is harder and more direct, which gives even the ballads a more affecting, visceral feel.
