FREE SONG A MONTH …STARTS TODAY!!!!

 

Greetings Mercy-nauts
We are rolling out phase III of our assault on boring rock today.
Boring bands lead to apathetic audiences and who the fuck wants to go to that show?!
We here in the Mercy Now are done with Cold boring Feet. We have …never forgotten how amazing rock can be and can’t possibly strive for anything less than soul stirring.
We remember how we felt the first time we heard Prince rip that solo and the end of Let’s Go Crazy. Or the first time we heard heard Lennon scream Mother or McCartney’s scream in Helter Skelter. Elvis practically crying “We can’t go on together with suspicious minds”. Who can forget that shit.
These are among the watermarks we strive for and we are now giving away free.
Once a month The Mercy Now are releasing a new song that will be free for a month until the the next free song is released. If you miss a month you will have to pay for it. Although the cost will be minimal because recorded music has little to no monetary value anymore. Unless its vinyl of course.
Damn the Internet
Damn Cold Feet
We couldn’t beat em
So we joined them
We love and thank you
And you are welcome
Now turn it up loud
Because the next year is on us.

Dedicated to rockers who wear their hearts on their songs, and the rockers that go out to see them.

The Mercy Now
@ The Bovine Sex Club, 1am

The Mercy Now are simply a great Rock & Roll band. Tight and explosive performers they combine the Funk/Soul of James Brown, the aggression of the Dead Kennedys and a dash of Deep Purple’s Prog Rock tendencies. They’re at there best when the Prog leanings are held on a choke chain, but even when they break lose, it’s ok because the other elements already have your ass in their jaws.
