Here’s an interview with Ryan talking about Recovery Child’s growth into their second album “Afterimage”, and how their approach to the writing process differed.

Toro Mag Video & Interview

Our good friends at Toro Magazine asked us to come play Garage Band, an incredible online show that they host which showcases indie bands on the Canadian scene. There’s nothing like it and we love Toro for being such a backbone to Canadian indie music. Here’s the video of us playing “Armour Worn”…

Gibson

RecoveryChild — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:46:15 +0000

As some of you may have noticed, Ryan has been playing a Gibson Les Paul on stage these days. Truth be told, Ryan’s Les Paul was used extensively on “Afterimage” and he’s been playing it live to recreate the tones that we got in the studio.

The fine folks at Gibson have been very cool to us lately. We just wanted to thank them for their support!

Back in the Studio

Guess who’s back in the studio?

Trigger Me – Live

RecoveryChild — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 16:10:30 +0000

We give ourselves creative liberty when playing our song “Trigger Me”, so much so that the breakdown of the song can be unpredictable (in a good way).

Afterimage Out Now!

RecoveryChild — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 15:36:00 +0000

We are so happy to announce that our new album Afterimage is out today. You can pick up a copy here:

http://recoverychild.bandcamp.com/album/afterimage

We started writing the album several years ago, some of the songs dating back almost as far back as our first record On Being And The Affect… . More so than anything else, our goal was to release something that we felt best represented our growth as a band, which is a process that couldn’t be rushed. We chose to record the album ourselves so that we had time to experiment and let the songs develop as they needed to. Many parts were re-written and re-recorded throughout the process until we had refined the album to something we were truly happy with. Afterimage is us exploring the kind of band that Recovery Child could be, and though not everything made the grade, we learned a lot about ourselves and this band by taking the journey. Be sure to check out the videos on our YouTube page to see some of the making of.

Afterimage was originally conceived as a full-length album, not an EP like it is now. We started with 14 songs… we recorded 12… then at the eleventh hour we decided to break the album into two EPs so that we could release more music throughout the year. We vowed never to go as long as we had without releasing more music. The “sister EP” to Afterimage is due out in early 2012 but for now you can enjoy the fruits of our labour in Afterimage.

Thank you everyone for you patience and continued support.
