All Killer No Filler
This is an awesome album that everyone should own. From start to finish it is amazing. If you are already an Ours fan or just looking for new music, you should buy this album.

BEAUTIFUL CD
I agree with the other review! I been a big fan of Ours and Jimmy Gnecco since Distorted Lullibies-for five years I been in love wit the music of Ours.
This Cd is Jimmy's best work-It's beautiful and seems more personal, It's nothing like he has ever done-You will enjoy Jimmy's new vision on life and the world threw his powerful voice and lyrics!!

If only more bands released albums like Mercy
I've been a fan of Ours for 7 years and have eagerly awaited the release of Mercy for 6. This CD is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL, since receiving my copy I have listened to this album over two dozen times. I have listened to the song Mercy over 200 times itself. From start to finish is an experience that you really need to hear for yourself to fully enjoy. MERCY is truly a masterpiece and now that it is finally released in the way Jimmy Gnecco and the rest of the band want it to be heard, it is not disappointing in the slightest bit. This is a CD that makes you love music, that makes you appreciated a talented vocalist, songwriter and musician.
The lyrics, the packaging, all so emotional and beautiful. I've been near near tears listening to this music the first time and several times since my first listen, track 1 to 12 is pure genius. It's a BEAUTIFUL CD, it's a magical, beautiful thing, my favorite group of musicians were able to take songs that sound great live and make it a new experience on record, even to those who have heard these songs so many times live over the years. The band has finally shaped its sound into a cohesive, unique group that is different than any other Ours cd, let a lone any other band. Mercy is overwhelming, and just brilliant. I've heard these songs develop live throughout the years and trust me, this band is brilliant live, but to hear them on record thinking it was impossible to beat their live performance, I was truly blown away and you will be too.
The guitar riffs compliment the vocals, each song has an introduction and an outro that creatively add to the substance of each song. The lyrics are heart wrenching at times, melancholy and hopeful and overall well written. Murder features a discrete use of a trumpet that compliments the instrumentals, and acoustic guitars, keyboards and orchestration are heard to add many layers to each song that unravel into an epic listening experience. Mercy is a timeless record.
