.. ..THE MERCY KILLS are a 3 piece Rock outfit from Melbourne, Australia... The band formed in 2005 and for their first twelve months together played shows around the 'rock pits' of Melbourne, kicking out their dirty, pop, punk sound.
2006 saw THE MERCY KILLS enter the studio to record. Their first E.p release 'MERCY KILLERS' is available though itunes.
In July 2007 THE MERCY KILLS song 'NEED IT' was added as track No 1 to RIOT ON SUNSET Vol 4 from 272 Records in Los Angeles and is receiving constant airplay from college radio and online stations such as Seattle's 104.9 FM, Live 365.com, Smash 679 and Fat Cat radio.
In August 272 Records released Suburban Threat, which is a split album featuring THE MERCY KILLS and THE JOYSTIX. www.272records.com. Suburban Threat' has just been re-released kickin' into 2008 with new artwork and has been added to radio and is available in hard copy.
The Guys and Gal have just finished recording a pile of new songs working with Neil Grey (Vasco Era, The Roys, The Living End). A video clip has also been produced by Alex Beem for 'Your Type' which combines trashy black and white street footage with live show flashes of THE MERCY KILLS performing. You can watch this film clip for 'Your Type' a little further down this page below the Triple J Unearthed logo. Hey and if you're still reading this please cast a vote or even better a request to JJJ for THE MERCY KILLS.
