The stripped-back release showcases a previously unseen side of the band and their sound
With the release of their new single ‘Bat Country’, Perth alternative rock outfit Mergo continue to establish a grungy and atmospheric sound that melds sounds of the 90s with a potent, modern cutting edge that is packed full of intensity and emotion throughout.
The acoustic instrumentation of the track adds a layer of subtlety to the sound that adds to its authenticity while their gritty core remains, allowing for a sense of intimacy that has previously not been allowed to shine through within their sound. As the track progresses and the emotional scales tip over, the track makes for a really cathartic and powerful release from the band that is matched all the way by the deeply personal nature of the lyrics.
