Treasure Junkie, original rock trio from the Midwest, USA.
Over three years in the making, "Anathema" is ready to rock. Featuring 11 original tracks, "Anathema" has a great variety, displaying catchy pop hooks on "Cornea," complete with hand-claps, to crunchy layered guitars and double-bass rhythms on "Siren," funky slap and mixed-meter grooves on "The Worst Man" and "Reservoir," an acoustic ballad (with guest vocalist Amanda Williams) with "Abstruse," to a full-out choir harmonies on "Heaven's Eyes," plus five other stellar recordings for your listening delight.
Recorded at Bridge Studio in Jamestown, Missouri, "Anathema" is a splendor of original talent and skilled production. Produced, mixed, and mastered by Matt Biermann and Shannon Davidson, guitars on the recording include a '69 Fender Tele Thinline, PRS Mark Tremonti, Anderson S, Godin, Fender Nashville Tele, '70s Goya, Fender Toronado, and many others, into Genz-Benz and Zinky amps, recorded with Royer 121 ribbon microphones. All bass tracks were recorded directly into Pro Tools HD-5 using a handbuilt Demeter VTMP, via Radial J-DI, with a Line6 Variax 705 five-string bass, using the Warwick Thumb and MTD 535 emulations, simultaneously tracked and layered on an SWR 2x10 combo. Drums parts were tracked live using a Drum Works Master Series kit with Shure and Sennheiser microphones.
