Mercury Rev: Stillness Breathes 1991 - 2006

year 2006 notes: 2006 issued anthology of recordings by the lil' band from Buffalo that could...and did!...and they just keep getting stronger with every release. Though virtually unknown in their home country, Mercury Rev have a fervent following around the globe that put them in the same class as Flaming Lips, thanks to their unpredictable live concerts and intense musicianship. This is the first ever anthology derived from their many albums released since the inception of the band in 1991. This limited edition set comes with a bonus disc of rarities/cover versions, including a rendition of "Deadman" with Alan Vega (of Suicide) in tow, "So There" with Robert Creeley in tow as well, "Philadelphia" performed on KCRW's "Morning Becomes Eclectic" show, "Streets Of Laredo", "I Only Have Eyes For You" and many more.
