From electronica of the soul suffering in the dark of night, to delicate love songs, and a hopeful reflection on the future, this is a musical picture scroll created by the founder of the Velvets. After moving to the U.S., he became an original member of the Velvet Underground and has since released a number of albums under his own name and also works as a music producer. For this album, Cale has recruited some of the most curious young artists in the music world: Animal Collective, Sylvan Esso, Laurel Halo, Tei Shi, and Actress. They are all talented musicians who have entered Cale's completed worldview, where they help him re-decorate his own world. MERCY" is an extension of their long and storied careers.
