Born Horses (Vinyl LP)

On their ninth album Born Horses American indie mainstays Mercury Rev dish up what has been called "gleaming, glistening psych-jazz-folk-baroque-ambient". Evoking the likes of Vangelis' Blade Runner soundtrack, the melancholic cool of Chet Baker, and the merry madness of broadway musicals, the record is set to be the silver thread between the band's storied past and their wondrous, wild future. - Flying Out 

Spiritually, literally, psycho-geographically: where else does Mercury Rev’s ninth album Born Horses spring from? This cascade of gleaming, glistening psych-jazz-folk-baroque-ambient quest that searches its soul but can never truly know the answer? A sound and vision begun with skeletal chords and surges of self-reflection, alive to the notions and motions of time and reality somehow both linked to their exalted past whilst quite unlike anything they have created before?’’
