Title: Thank God for internet radio!!
Review: If I remember correctly I was listening to my Band of Horses station on Pandora; heard a track by Long-View; and was instantly hooked! What I usually do when that happens is go to Amazon and look for reviews on the band and then buy the cd...so glad I purchased Mercury!!! Listened to it in it's entirety at the gym and loved every single track...how often does that happen? I am a huge fan of the Shoegaze scene and this band has just enough of that element to make me want to sway back and forth and stare at my shoes...I must admit, some of the songs teeter on the corny side (I suppose that's the Pop influence)and I can definitely see them on an OC or One Tree Hill soundtrack, but the songs have just enough droning guitar or catchy hook to suck me in. I realize that Mercury is not a new cd but it's new to me and one of my favorites right now :-)
