Description/Reviews: 

Mercy, Pity, Peace & Love is a concept album deriving its inspiration as much from William Blake's visionary aesthetics as from 20th century musical icons ranging from Jimi Hendrix, King Crimson and Tortoise to Igor Stravinsky and Olivier Messiaen. Rather than a linear sequence describing one musical event, this record is a multilayered sonic adventure that has a lot of stuff going on. Alternately fiery and mellow, groovy and meditative, Mercy, Pity, Peace & Love is a marked departure from the free rock and jazz models of its predecessor (the much-praised Never Pet a Burning Dog) and is rooted in the trio's most inspirational rock sources, offering hard-edged, straight-ahead beats, jazzy ballads, dub and ambient-trance episodes and even a cover version of Hendrix's Purple Haze which is bound to set your ears on fire. This album is filled with furious guitars riffs, progressive keyboard extravaganza, and monstrous, thundering drums.
