The High Confessions
The High Confessions are a Chicago-based supergroup formed in 2009 around an unlikely convergence of experimental music veterans: industrial vocalist Chris Connelly (Ministry, Revolting Cocks), Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley, metal producer Sanford Parker (Minsk, Nachtmystium), and engineer Jeremy Lemos. Their debut album Turning Lead into Gold (2010) on Relapse Records is a brooding, drone-heavy document of post-rock experimentation informed by each member's industrial and metal background, described by critics as evocative and textural rather than aggressive. The project represented a rare cross-pollination of Chicago's disparate underground scenes.
