Mercury Rev's Born Horses emerges from the mystical landscapes of upstate New York, blending organic and electronic sounds—guitars, keys, brass, strings, and drums—with ethereal vocals. This ninth album is a shimmering psych-jazz-folk-ambient journey rooted in the band’s history yet unlike anything before. Featuring new member Marion Genser and longtime collaborators, Born Horses channels introspection, time, and reality through a richly textured, spiritual soundscape inspired by avant-garde and poetic influences.
