Recorded by Andy Baker (Macha, Causey Way, Mendoza Line) in Athens, GA, this record clearly shows the band's progression as songwriters and musicians. Less minimal (more complex?) than their debut on Boxcar Records due to the adoption of additional instrumentations (i.e. vibraphones), The Mercury Program successfully weave jazz-induced drums with rhythmic basslines and off-time guitars.

While the band plans to record its third full length later this year, they found time to stop by Chase Park Transduction and record a 5 song/30 minute EP, again with Andy Baker (Macha, Causey Way, and The Glands). Since the addition of Whit Travisano as the full time 4th member in early 2000, and with several months of national touring under their belt, the Mercury Program are now fully realized as a quartet. The songs on this EP reflect the band's comfort as a 4 piece, and are musically more textured than    [ read more ]
