Recovery - New Estate

Melbourne scrap-pop wonders New Estate release their fourth album Recovery, their first for Chapter Music, As the title suggests, it's a reinvigorated outfit you hear on the new album, delivering New Estate's brightest, catchiest and most expansive long player to date, Like their debut album, 2004's Considering, Recovery was recorded by the band at their home studio in verdant Jacana, but New Estate have honed their recording skills in the intervening years and bring a weallth of new life experience andmusicianship to Recovery, Mia Schoen (who also contributes the coverart) and guitarist Marc Regueiro-McKelvie (Teeth & Tongue, Popolice) share songwriting duties fairly evenly, bar a track each contributed by bassist Toby and idiosyncratic drummer Larry G, Mia's songs, like Diamonds and Parallel are propulsive pop explosions, while Marc's songs veer into sprawling guitar epic territory, Toby's Can't Do Without You could be a lost early 80s Oz Rock classic, while the extended emotional chaos of Larry G's Whiskey Spider makes for a glorious mess.
