"...And Of Course I Don't Mind/Chasing A Bee Is My Job"
Placid Flute Floats Dreamily On Top Of A Mellow Bass Bottom, But In Between...
The Mid-Range!
HOME OF CHAOS!!!
Forged From Psychedelic Ether At The University Of Buffalo, New York 1989, MERCURY REV Initially Came Together As A Means Of Scoring The Group's Student Films.
They Mutated Ferociously From There Into An Impressive Psychedelic Noise-Rock Combo, As Evinced By Their 1991 Debut Album, "Yerself Is Steam," From Whence The Single "Chasing A Bee" Has Been Nicked.
Guitarist And Co-Founder JONATHAN DONAHUE Pulled Double Duty As A Full-Time Guitarist (Until 1993) For The Oklahoman Discordian Terrorists, THE FLAMING LIPS!
Lead Singer DAVID BAKER, Who Left After REV's 2nd Album, "Boces," Seems To Be The Ultimate Source Of The Weird, Almost Overwhelming Sonic Experimentation, As The Group's Sound Leveled Off And Became More Standard & Mainstream After BAKER Left.
But That First Album!
Imagine JETHRO TULL Playing Live On An Airport Runway, With Boeing 747s Powering Up All Around Them, Then Dose The Whole Scene In The Infamous "Brown Acid," And You Will Begin To Get The General Idea.
NOISY Ju-Ju!!
I Would Recommend Rushing Out & Buying "Yerself Is Steam," And "Boces" On Physical Media!
Put It On Your Shelf, And It Is YOURS!
Also, Think About America's Bloody Labor History, & Support Worker's UNIONS!
They Are What Made The Middle Class Possible, And Could Do It Again!
Be Honest, Kind & Forgiving.
Be Humble, EVEN If You KNOW You're The Best!
