Brotherhood of Electric: Operational Directives is the second studio album by the American rock band Wellwater Conspiracy. It was released on February 9, 1999, through Time Bomb Recordings.
Overview
[edit ]The album was recorded in 1998. The band worked with the producer Adam Kasper. The album was mixed by the band members themselves. This is the first Wellwater Conspiracy album to include Matt Cameron on lead vocals. The album has a guest appearance by rock musician Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and Kyuss. The album's cover art was created by Cameron. Greg Prato of Allmusic said Wellwater Conspiracy "offer another intriguing collection of 60's-tinged ditties."[1] Teen Lambchop was played live at the first Queens of the Stone Age concert which McBain and Cameron were members of at the time.[2]
