Medicine has released three albums on american recordings: Shot Forth Self Living, The Buried Life, and their EP Sounds of Medicine - Stripped and Reformed Sounds. Each album succeeds in wrapping beautifully satisfying melodies in a cloak of assaulting dissonance. We're showcasing excerpts from all three albums and clips from their videos ("The Pink" and "Never Click" from Buried . . . and "Time Baby 3" from Sounds . . . and The Crow soundtrack).

"[Medicine] songwriter/producer Brad Laner knows how to create amazing caterwaul with nothing more than an abused guitar and an eight-track machine, but he also writes pop tunes that are drop-dead gorgeous. Melody and harmony are lovingly powered--never overpowered--by Medicine's noisy backdrops."
