Bio
The Mercurymen were molded from
primordial elements in June of 1995.
They aim to call forth the sonic surface
to air annihilation of all things that
defy beauty and innocence. They
succeed when they play the notes
they know nothing about, reaching
into dark places for the music's now
forgotten legends, myths and songs.
Over time they have honed their
nickel wound assault to a fearsome
war cry. To date they have released
three CDs, "Multimediaocrity", a
departure point;
"Antimaterialheadsetdrill", an epic
collage of experimental rock; and
"How To Teen", the most focused
effort of their oeuvre. Both "Anti..."
and "...Teen" faired well with radio
worldwide. The Mercurymen continue
to bludgeon audiences with their
palpable rock action. Currently
finishing their fourth CD for release
later this year, they are continuing
work with producer Martin Bisi
(Sonic Youth, Swans, Material, John
Zorn, Helmet) at his B.C. Studios
in Brooklyn, NY for future release.
They plan to spend the rest of the
year playing in any town that will
let them eat with their hands. Know
them by their work.
