There’s something raw, mysterious and wild about mercury, the alt-rock project around artist Maddie Kerr.

Heads might see some spiritual kinship with bands like Blonde Redhead or Elliott Smith's old outfit Heatmiser, especially in the way mercury can make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Hauntingly beautiful noise that makes all of us howl collectively at the moon. 

What's mercury's secret? 
An unflappable talent for turning melancholy, pain and grief into formidable squalls of sound.
