Did you know this is OUT? It's practically a new Mercury Tree album, except it's the most singular songwriting of Nick Prol! Please listen to this album. We worked on it all year and some of last year. You shan't regret the time in listening. proletarians.bandcamp.com/al…

New music for #bandcampfriday! We recently contributed guest vocals to two tracks for the new DARK AGES album: Tom Shad's grindy, two-bass NYC project featuring Colin Marston, Nick Didkovsky, Jacob Sunshine, and Alex Cohen. darkagesnyc.bandcamp.com/alb…

We'll finally be releasing some new tracks in the next couple of weeks, all of them special collabs with exciting secret people. Don't tell... it's a secret. Just kidding, you can.
