Tracks:

1. FFF

3. Moonlight (Lunar Eclipse) remix by Christian Erickson

Mercurial Rage have been raising the roof around here for the last couple years with their uniquely
infectious, ultra danceable sounds. Taking influence from the finest exponents of electronic pop’s first
Golden Age (think Depeche Mode, The Cure, and dance-rock bands like Happy Mondays and Primal
Scream), The Rage add their own totally unique lyrical stamp and jaunty melodic personality.

Formed by writer/bassist Chris Church and singer Michael DiGreggario, soon joined by guitarist Butch
McQueen and Brock Landers on guitars/synths, The Rage have always been all about style, sonically
and personality-wise. Their previous releases (The Funeral Sessions and last fall’s self-titled EP on
MPLSLtd) show a band with a fully-formed yet constantly-evolving sound. The songs on “Never
Remember…”, their new 3-Sided Single, are some of their hottest yet. This time around the songs are
leaner and catchier than ever before, and there are more rock guitar spikes mixed in with the
sequencers. “F.F.F.” is a deliciously kinky tale of future lust in grand Rage tradition. “Gotta Girl” is a
storming techno-pop track, menacing but danceable. The third track “Moonlight (Lunar Eclipse)” is a
remix of one the band’s live favorites, a totally new take on the song put together by Christian Erickson
(Astronaut Wife / Zeus Jones). Produced by Ed Ackerson at Flowers Studio in Minneapolis, these
tracks feature special guest Peter Anderson (Polara, Iffy, Honeydogs) on drums.
