btw, with the attention the Flaming Lips and Modest Mouse have been getting over the last few years, i'm really hoping that it's primed the audience for a full-fledged Mercury Rev mainstream breakthrough. pray

Thanks for the info!

Somebody on this site (maybe you) introduced me to them and I haven't stopped listening. Huge fan of See you on the Other Side and Desserter's Songs.

In a Funny Way is a great, great song. Glad to see it's getting some wider exposure on a proper album.

So I hear lol I want a giant poster of this for my new "media room" (the ugly spare bedroom that got the least attention in the makeover. And yes, a miniature version on my left ummmmm well you know ~ to go with the other moths may be just perfect. What Rune can it represent? Ahhhh ~ after closer inspection of the artwork and looking at the title ~ it would be a wonderful sybolic statement of the Movement (migration) Rune. Quite a spiritual and important statement. Think they would require permission to copy? It's not like anyone (hardly) would ever see it. innocent

You think you could find someone that could capture that kind of detail and color?

There is an artist in Royal Oak I've heard of. I've seen his work and it is totally up to that level.
