Music This Week’s Mercury Music Section

Posted by Ezra Caraeff on Thu, Jun 14 at 10:26 AM

We do more than blog about duct tape around here, we like music too…

Welcome to the fun parade of Architecture in Helsinki.
MP3: Architecture in Helsinki - Heart It Races

Take off to the great white north with Canada, who are not from Canada. Also, this band, is not from Asia. I am stunned.
MP3: Canada - Hexen Haus

The Texas-sixed ghostly hauntings of Jana Hunter are worth celebrating. Plus, Devendra loves her. Know what he doesn’t love? Showers.
MP3: Jana Hunter - Bird

Bash yer skull on the prog rock with Facing New York.
MP3: Facing New York - The Messenger

We wrote about Lindsey Buckingham, but I don’t have his new record here. And really, does anyone care? Instead, here is a great new song from John Doe (of X), who has aged more gracefully than Bucky.
MP3: John Doe - Hotel Ghost

Damn, and I was all set to praise you for having a clue about Lindsay Buckingham, unlike the WW. In the past couple of months I've seen him, Robyn Hitchcock and Dinosaur Jr.; Buckingham's show was by far the weirdest, with the heaviest guitar solos.

Yeah, I was just kidding around since I don't have his new record and can't find a MP3 of it online. I'm a Bucky fan, one who swears by "Tusk."
