"Jason is willing to lose everything to make a good record which is a very rare thing these days. He'll push everything to the limit in the pursuit of making a good record. I guess you could say it's excessive, but often it's the case of trying to make beautiful things" - Bobby Gillespie
Since the release of the last studio album, ‘Amazing Grace’, there followed a lengthy period of touring but this was unfortunately curtailed by a serious illness which struck main man Jason Pierce in 2005.

Mercury Rev are back with their extraordinary new album on Co-Op / V2, 'Snowflake Midnight', which is as thrilling as their other milestone releases, specifically their 1991 sprawling avant-psych Dada-rock debut 'Yerself Is Steam', and their 1998 masterpiece 'Deserter's Songs', which signalled their rebirth as purveyors of a cosmic brand of the popular American songbook.

The vocals are alternately sexier and angrier. And the beats are unrepentantly funky. It’s like the boys have gathered the glammest riffs of three-decades-ago Bowie and Prince and fed them through some mysterious, apocalyptic sound machine

"I've become obsessed with taking stuff out, leaving only the most important elements in place. I got more into blending and integration and subtlety. I just want to be courageous enough to feel and express as much as possible and that means ALL the emotions." - Joan Wasser
