about
The Wild Mercury Sound follow debut single ‘Miss Frost’ (October 2011) with a new single in March. ‘Slow’ was produced by Peter Miles (Dry The River, King Blues) and is a taster for the band’s debut album, due in Summer 2012. ‘Miss Frost’ introduced the band to the wider public following a year of low key shows topped off with sell out shows at London’s Barfly. Steve Lamacq made them his New Band of the Week on his 6 Music show with ‘Miss Frost’ winning the Rebel Playlist whilst blog love came in waves with Room Thirteen praising a sound ‘destined to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up for all the right reasons’ and Subba-Cultcha identifying them as a ‘serious band to watch’. Lamacq himself described ‘Miss Frost’ as ‘like a scene from Fight Club going on in your head’. ‘Slow’ is a second salvo of towering guitars and vocal poise that has seen the band compared to the likes of Jeff Buckley, Jane’s Addiction and Radiohead.
