Someone cheered them up

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you thought Counting Crows were too quiet and depressing, this album may change your mind
Review: ?August and Everything After? is a somewhat harrowing listening experience. Eleven tracks imbued with inescapable misery and emotional suffering don?t make for easy listening. That?s why ?Recovering the Satellites? comes as something of a surprise...

Some Day I'll Stay, But Not Today

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2000
Review: You know the deal. Short, sweet and to the point. That's how you would describe the song "Walkaways" by the Counting Crows. It's the last track on the cd, but we always do save the best for last. The first time I heard the song, it was live. I...

Recovering the Platinum

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2000
Review: I'll have to be honest in saying I didn't much listen to this album in length until I went and saw these guys in concert. I was missing out on some good tunage. The dreaded MTV only playing videos twice before they are out of the rotation, I was...

Not a one album wonder after all

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 1999
Review: Edited 3-12-00
After hearing the single ?A Long December? on the radio, I went out and bought this album. I wasn?t expecting too much. Although I had heard several good songs off of their first album, I had written the Counting Crows as one of...

Recovering the lost art of songwriting

Date of Review:  Jun 8, 2000
The Bottom Line: Melodically, lyrically, instrumentally...this album is just about as good as it gets.
Review: The thing that strikes me whenever I listen to Recovering the Satellites is the musical craftsmanship that went into it. Where another band would be satisfied to play a generic bass line, use an old lyrical cliche, or follow a predictable rhythm...

Date of Review:  Sep 10, 2000
Review: This was a perfect effort put out by Adam and the boys. Like their exceptional debut, August and Everything After,Recovering the Satellites is a dark melodic masterpiece that involves every emotion in the swirl of sound and verse.The magic of the...

A murder of Crows

Date of Review:  Feb 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: Not as good as the previous works, but the ballads are awesome. Mixed pickles.
Review: Did you know that a flock of crows is called a 'murder'? Well, out of 14 tracks on this disc, I truly like 5. The rest of the songs just didn't move me. The great songs are: 'Daylight fading', 'Im not sleeping', 'Goodnight Elisabeth', 'Mercury', and...

this is quality-songwriting!

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2000
Review: 'recovering the satellites' is a really depressive cd (just to say that at first)!
you will find majorly a darker sound than on the other albums, but still the quality song-writing you are already used to.

Good - but far from their best

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2000
Review: I'm a big fan of the Counting Crows but this album has not caught me as much as their other two studio albums did and I'm not sure why.

The lyrics on the album are typical Adam Duritz lyrics but somehow their depth and passion don't hit...
