The Mercury Impulse are a duo from Chicago, Illinois that plays a mixture of noise, drone, dark ambient and experimental and this is a review of their self released 2024 album "Records of Human Behavior" which will be released in August.
Harsh noises and power electronics start off the album while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. At times the music also gets very experimental sounding along with a lot of the album also being improvised and the synths also add in elements of dark ambient when they are utilized.
Drones are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while one song also introduces electric guitar noises onto the album. All of the songs also sound very different from each other along with most of the tracks also sticking to more of an instrumental direction, one track also adds in a brief use of spoken word parts which also enhance the apocalyptic atmosphere of the music, programmed beats can also be heard briefly.
The Mercury Impulse plays a musical style that takes noise, drone, dark ambient and experimental and mixes them together to create a sound of their own while the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion The Mercury Impulse are a very great sounding mixture of noise, drone, dark ambient and experimental and if you are a f an of those musical genres, you should check out this duo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Keeping my Second Self Invisible" "Miles of Smoldering Trash" and "Lessons of Apathy". 8 out of 10.
