MP3 Full Minute of Mercury - Alive Again
19 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Punk, METAL: 80''s Metal
Details:
Full Minute of Mercury''s sound draws from many influences in the punk, new wave, metal, emo, hardcore, pop, and alternative genres, but by no means is a cross genre band - Full Minute has created a sound unlike any other. Instead of writing some self-inflated bio, here''s what others have to say about FMHg:
"At the forefront, the band''s rhythmic bombast and scissoring metal guitars arrest the attention, but the throwback synths and sweet lead vocals of Kelly Landers create an odd juxtaposition. It''s Viper Room-style sleazy excess shot through with a workday innocence- as if Warrant and Missing Persons reformed to collaborate on the soundtrack of a lost John Hughes movie."
-DCist
"While it''s pretty easy to give most bands a clear-cut label -- synth-pop, heavy metal, pop-punk -- FMHg can, and does, run through all of those genres within a single song. The sextet''s defining features are singer Kelly Landers''s chipper, girly vocals, the prominent synth lines of keyboardist Kristen Williams and the all-out shredding of guitarists Tom Benca and Chris Dixon. Sometimes it works really well, giving them a sound that no band in the country -- let alone D.C. -- can claim. And other times it sounds like -- how to put this? -- the music playing during a montage in "Bill and Ted''s Excellent Adventure."
-The Washington Post
"Big sound, catchy melodies and hard-rocking rhythms combined perfectly for maximum auditory delight."
-Washington City Paper
"One of the most original and accessible sounds out there today."
-On Tap Magazine
