A Legacy of Experimental Artistry<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Recently awarded a\u00a09.3 score by Pitchfork<\/strong>\u00a0for their 1991 classic \u2018Yerself Is Steam,\u2019 Mercury Rev<\/strong>\u00a0continues to\u00a0push boundaries<\/strong>\u00a0while staying true to their roots inpsychedelic rock and avant-garde experimentation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With \u2018Born Horses<\/strong>,\u2019 the band channels the progressive energy of avant-garde legends<\/strong> like Tony Conrad<\/strong> and beat poet Robert Creeley<\/strong>, both of whom were pivotal figures in the creative scene of Buffalo, NY<\/strong>, where Mercury Rev<\/strong> was formed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new album is a sonic odyssey<\/strong>\u2014a shimmering blend of heroic indie rock, jazz-infused orchestration, and poetic introspection<\/strong>\u2014that cements Mercury Rev as one of the most bold and visionary acts in modern music<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
