The Mercury Program - The Secret To Quiet

[vivelavidarocka]

With instrumental music there could be trizillions of interpretations (or perceptions) to one composition. Add lyrics and, the same composition becomes (in 99% of the cases) one dimensional.

99% of singers aren't poets or writers.

[ShadowCrowX]

instrumental rock trumps all rock because vocals make or break a band. With instrumental you're just guaranteed quality instrumentation

[catbusification]

still one of the best skate/music combos in existence.

[chanceryz]

love the drum beat around 2:30, shit i love the whole thing.

[chanceryz]

love the drum beat around 2:30

[Jesusbuildmygeetarh]

If you like this band listen to Flying Lotus, Ratatat, the Octopus, THis town needs guns. Thrust me and try it.

[vivelavidarocka]

I dig this jazzy Post Rock

[ridermystery]

Holy shit, i just tripped... didnt smoke a splif since a month.... and this beautiful piece just turned me upside down, completely mesmerized, and made me dive and sink into it!!! WOW!!! =_=

[First2Ki11]

@ridermystery It just shows that you don't need weed to enjoy the beauty of music!

[mvmtjs]

Just Beautiful!!

Sounds perfect for me, songs like this and skateboard.

[MagikPepperPlan81]

Polish band EWA BRAUN souds similar.. Beautiful music..

[horsewrecker]

one of my absolutely favorite bands. and man, this kid is for real.

[donut2790]

Just bought their EP. Awesome stuff.

[skateofmind6]

At first, i watched it for the skating. then i fell in love with the mercury program. hell yes.

[XopeumX]

What a great tune, reminds me allot of velvetron.

[vasudevamusic]

FOR FANS OF INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC! PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR PAGE! OUR NAME IS VASUDEVA (vah-soo-de-vah)!

[senseofhumerus]

perfect combination right here. props.

[heyheymonkees]

this skater is bad ass.

[breaker746]

This is an all time favorite

[FogofLegnago]

wow!

[anythingskim]

steezy edit/song

[cliquehop]

This band seriously rocks in the old DC/Louisville style.

Forget all the "I hate them because they are big" hype. If you like something, listen to it. They're your ears. If you feel something, feel it. It's your heart. If you want a record, buy it. It's your money.

It's all about tolerance and respecting opinion. Yes, it even applies to music.

[will7386]

Awesome fucking song man.

[jewtube6969]

best fucking song ever

[Stingray3131]

Can anyone tell me what album this is on? I absolutely must have it.

[pumpum154]

@Stingray3131 "all the suits began to fall off". first track.

[scottyboy1928]

@Stingray3131 It's from their EP "All the Suits Began to Fall Off"

[warrenbgray]

LOVE THIS BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jeremyveggie36]

I love TMP and the fact that this is a skate video makes it even better. Wish they would come play in Texas sometime.

[phideauxiii]

i love this track. vibes are stellar. catch them on tour june

[YEahBITCHEZ]

yes this is the sorta music i was looking for these guys sound aweseom! i love instrumental music... phoenix- love like a sunset is one of my other favourites

[adiel67]

tea i agree this is my first time listening to them and i like it!!! and fuck mtv

[Theblob516]

It's true, The Mercury Program is the ultimate background music for anything that you could possibly do in this world.

[chumbscrubber42]

@Theblob516 even jerking off?

[Theblob516]

@chumbscrubber42 oh yeah definitely

[sahbian]

great video. i heard of these guys thru Maserati and i can't stop listening to this song.

[xBHDx]

Ca a été tourner a paris? j'ai reconnu l'arc de la defense a un moment

[own7seas]

love tha guitar in this video. and this type of music rocks!

[loketron]

its upholding two of my prudent intrest: skateboarding and the mercury program

[rockwhynot]

Kickflip to noseslide at 2:25 was beautiful.

[CDSlik]

i think the kickflip noseslide at 3:30 is better...just my opinion tho

[DirtyJokesMusic]

love when the music matches up so fine. stomping those landings on snare hits! so sick

[sklyrovka]

absolutely fucking great.

[1223dude1223]

TMP is a great representation of the feeling of skateboarding. when you try and land a new trick its all like a build up. when you finly land that trick its like nothing else matters you drift away for a few seconds. its kinda like this music. if you realy listen close you get pulled into it and everthing fades away for a few minutes. beautifull...

[jaybullen]

i guess its more timeless in black and white. I wish my brother could drum like this

[antiemo666777]

im digging the black and white noone really does that anymore it gives it a vintage look,you have good skaters too

[thewireforlife]

right at 2:20 the groove just kicks in and everything drifts away...

[stayposiTive1123]

im fucking in love with TMP

[MrPeeintheShower]

i hate the fact that everyone doesn't know about this band. i'm not the type to try and control everyone from hearing underground music. i want people to hear the mercury program, just not through douche bag corporations like mtv

[blanks138]

I feel you man. Its pretty lame when people dig something when it's tiny and don't like it anymore when the band gets bigger. A lot of kids that are into indie are like that. Punk too. But musics for everyone man. You got the right idea.

[locustmunch]

TMP: Real neat stuff.

Amen to both of you. My friend just wrote this massive article on how image affects the way we listen to music, and most of it seems pretty logical. Similar sounding bands being appreciated just because one projects a louder image.

Yet the Mercury Program lacks an aggressive image as a band, and they still totally kick ass... softly and forcefully.

[Flower11Child]

@blanks138 It's pretty lame when big companies take up an indie band just because it played in a movie with [insert someone famous here]...... I feel what you are saying, every band deserves a chance to make it big, but it sucks when they are liked because Kim Karsashian listens to them or whatever, ya know? These bands should become famous from being GOOD, not because someone ELSE thinks they are

[NationalEXE]

@blanks138 Yeah man, people were like "Yeah deadmau5 used to be the shit and everything but now that he's all mainstream I hate him."

[jango512]

ya i really like this kinda music.I first heard this from my 7th grade teacher and he would play music from this band while we wrote.

[kiddingarden]

well, 1 year after your comment i heard about this band by looking on a video about the newest cannon photo camera:)

[ZACHDISASTER]

@MrPeeintheShower THIS IS MY EXACT MENTALITY. Im glad there are others out there.

[AswesawLife]

@MrPeeintheShower consider me wrong

but there guys been together of 11 years i would call them underground as much

[robsteries]

@MrPeeintheShower actually, I find it good that it isn't that famous. That way it stays underground and for us to share. It's more special that way. I'm sure you understand :-)

[TheInvaderBN]

Crazy tune! Love it!!

[logwind]

Song fucking kills. Nice! Five stars.

[xduy93x]

how old is that kid?

[redhandrail]

great song. Try more breaks between skate footage with mercury program, though. Maybe. Wonderful music, great footage, more breaks between skating for this song. Fucking amazing skating, though.

[chillumgrill]

hell yeah this vid bring back some memories from the good old days^^ isn't it the Emerica - This Is Skateboarding?

[doncabb]

The skating is just as goog as the music, this kid is going places..talent!

[Dragon140237]

this is awesome fo stonerzz.. haha hellzyea

[Charredmonolith]

this is one of those bands that have paved the way for post hardcore bass and drumming, this band is just amazing.

[dankusking]

I know nothing of their background or history. But i can definitely see that holding true.

[Toddsmith311]

odd selection of back ground footage but it definitely works

[ejicon]

Great selection in music my friend. And you got skillz!

[breadboxed]

this song is beyond dope
