I love the direction(s) Mercury is headed, and this, with Scabbard, have me totally intrigued and excited for a potentially great, mature record.

Some tracks from Radiohead's _Amnesiac_ scream _Kid A_ sessions (this, obviously, because they were from those sessions). I get the distinct vibe that Mercury 'rises' from the Fuego cutting-room floor. I really, really hope they continue to pursue this direction, even more so than the fun and punchy Dead-like summer fare.
