Description
Since forming in 1989 in Buffalo, New York, Mercury Rev has made a career of boldly exploring the fringes of artistic perception, channeling colors and sounds and visions that always seem just beyond our mortal reach. The Guardian hailed the group as ?a rarity in indie rock: a band who have continually evolved their sound, pushing at the boundaries of what rock music actually means over 25 years, borrowing from jazz, funk, doo-wop, techno, folk and more along the way,? while Rolling Stone praised their ?majestic chaos,? and the BBC lauded their ?shimmering psychedelic pop, immersive indie-rock, [and] spectacularly engrossing passages of sumptuous instrumentation.?
The band?s 1991 debut, ?Yerself Is Steam,? landed on Pitchfork?s Best Shoegaze Albums of All Time, and their 1998 breakthrough, ?Deserter?s Songs?, upon its release was named NME?s Album of the Year, Pitchfork?s 100 Favorite Records of the 1990s (2003),Melody Maker?s All Time Top 100 Albums (2000),Uncut?s 200 Greatest Albums of All Time (2016) and multiple1000 Albums to Hear Before You Die lists. Diverse musical collaborations with legendary artistic luminaries as well as major festival and network television performances around the world have solidified their status as One of America?s most pioneering groups capable of straddling the line between mainstream appeal and progressive musical experimentation?
Details of a new album , recorded in the Catskills, to be released soon.
