Eleven Tracks, Running time TBC. Medications Devin Ocampo and Chad Molter (Faraquet) are joined on this release by Mark Cisneros. Completely Removed is Medications third release on Dischord and the band's second full-length.

Devin Ocampo and Chad Molter have been musical partners, swapping instruments and bands, since their high school days in Los Angeles. Both eventually migrated east to Washington, DC where they formed the highly influential Faraquet in the late 1990s and were again reunited when they formed Medications in 2003.

The recording of the new Medications album, Completely Removed, documents a new phase for the band with Chad and Devin covering all the writing and most of the instrumental duties following the departure of drummer Andrew Becker.

Happily both are accomplished multi-instrumentalists and are joined live and in the studio by longtime friend and musical swingman Mark Cisneros to flesh out the arrangements.

Not surprisingly Completely Removed represents a bit of a departure from the band's signature off kilter rockers. This is not to say they have lost their edge. In fact, the new material dives headlong into new musical territory with thrilling results.

Medications have toured extensively in the States and Europe. A European tour is being planned for May to coincide with the release.
