Gigi's Recovery

The Murder Capital's second studio album Gigi's Recovery, produced by John Congleton, features a sleeve with a painting by Peter Doyle and is designed by Aidan Cochrane.

Their first album, When I Have Fears, had all its songs written and recorded within the first 9 months of the band knowing each other.

Now, with Gigi's Recovery, the band had to learn to navigate their personal relationships through the relationships they harnessed with these new songs. Without knowing what these songs would sound like, the band knew what they wanted them to feel like. They worked backwards from there, with a slightly tongue-in-cheek mantra at the near-beginning of writing this record - "The evolution will not be compromised."

This mantra kept them on course, even when they didn't know where they were going. And that's exactly how The Murder Capital ended up with an album that is both totally pure and yet completely confident in its direction.
