Mercury Rev - Back To Mine [1/9] *

Artist:

Mercury Rev

Description:

While not actually a Mercury Rev record, BACK TO MINE finds the famously off-kilter Buffalo freak rockers selecting a DJ set of their favorite sides for DMC, a vanity label of sorts for the British electronica set. Mercury Rev stand out among the other participants in the series--including Tricky, New Order, Morcheeba, and Underworld, among others--as they are the only American rock band to curate a disc. Their all-over-the-map compiling skills land "Seasons in the Sun" by Terry Jacks next to Galaxie 500, and "The Grand Tour" by George Jones next to Suicide. An eclectic and twisted set indeed, but one should expect nothing less from the Rev.
