In 1998 Mercury Rev delivered the unexpected, a hit album. Deserter’s Songs, the fourth studio long player from the New York-based band not only delivered three UK Top 40 singles, but also struck cultural pay dirt across the globe that still resonates today. Fully cementing Mercury Rev’s rebirth as purveyors of a cosmic brand of the popular American songbook, Deserter’s Songs is an album of grandiose proportions. Merging jazz, folk, sweeping orchestration, and a dose of 60’s rock, the album was intended as the band’s swan song and therefore made with utter abandon.

Producer – Mercury Rev. Trombone – J. Burgess. Violin – Julie Baker. Mercury Rev. Boces ‎(Cass, Album).

Mercury Rev are strange. Out of all the messy, out of control, and chaotic noise-rock albums to come out during the 90's Boces is pretty much the craziest. Not just because it’s overly filled with feedback and distortion, but because the band will go from playing light hearted dream pop to boisterous noise-fests. The mellow guitar lines and dreamy vocal melodies will lull you in and then the band will go crazy thrashing away at their instruments blasting hard hitting guitar riffs and thumping bass lines. While the tune is drastically different from anything else off of the album it does not sound out of place due Bakers trance inducing voice. The single, Something For Joey resembles a rusty Pavement song as its scratchy guitar riffs and dreamy, summertime atmosphere takes control of you. Mercury Rev even throw in a wiry flute solo during the instrumental chorus creating another strange yet satisfying effect.

Boces" was Mercury Rev's 2nd album and continues the noisy psychedlia and experimentation that was evident in the first album "Yerself is Steam". David Baker fronted the band in both albums, however he left the band a year after "Boces" was released. However, Mercury Rev would continue to exist and move slowly to a more lush sound which also continued to be innovative.

Talk about Mercury Rev - Boces


Malojurus
is the sound on this any good compared to the red LP?
Mot
This is absolute garbage compared to the 1st press from 1993! Sounds compressed to me. The 1st press on red wax is ???? analog and sounds amazing vs this trash of a repress! Another trash cash grab by a record label. MOV sucks
Ffan
A 3d day-glo dream! An album shot through with colour, light and harmony. An absolute stunner from start to finish with a classic album cover and the last with baker. This is also the pressing you want to own of this master stroke. Wide analog sound and tubey magnificent
