Recently hailed by\u00a0Pitchfork<\/a>\u00a0with a 9.3 for their 1991 classic\u00a0\u2018Yerself Is Steam,\u2019 Mercury Rev has been revered for their experimental artistry and challenging the status quo throughout their career. The new collection is a glistening psych-jazz-folk-baroque-ambient quest highlighting the band\u2019s sophisticated instrumentation, met with heroic indie rock chops and offering a fresh new poetic perspective.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Born Horses\u2019\u00a0is vocally inspired by the spirits of art minimalist Tony Conrad (LaMonte Young\u2019s Dream Syndicate w\/ John Cale and a close friend to The Velvet Underground) and beat poet Robert Creeley (one of the most influential American poets of the 20th century and an associate of Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and the Black Mountain poets), acolytes of progressive thought and action who both taught at the University at Buffalo, the city where the band was formed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
