NUM991A-1 (PRE-ORDER)
RELEASE DATE: 10/10/25
In the wake of the Louisville-via-Chicago, late-millennium, post-rock explosion, The Mercury Program arrived at an amorphous scene in transition, vibraphone in hand. "From The Vapor Of Gasoline" - their 2000 album for Tiger Style Records - was hardly a sophomore slump, it's ten cerebral and dissonant jams coyly answering the never-asked query: What if new age and post-hardcore bought a house in the suburbs? This 25th anniversary remaster reveals the genius of an overlooked triumph in startlingly vibrant detail, providing atmospheric color for erstwhile reptile and periodic-table fans alike.
