Music:Member Since: 7/15/2004Band Website: meremortalsmusic.com Band Members: Axel....Vocal/Guitar Mimi Star ....bass guitar Todd Demma ...Drums Derek Walker ....Guitar/back up vocal Influences: Primal Scream, NEU!, Oasis, Verve, Stones, Pistols, Stone Roses, Spacemen3, Ride, Faces, Suede, Bowie, TRex, Secret Machines, Early Floyd, Soundtrack, BRMC, MBV, Mansun, Catherine Wheel, Death in Vegas, The Only Ones, The Dead Boys, These Animal Men, Warlocks, Etc... REVIEW "Mere Mortals sound as if they're angling for a spot in the Britpop pantheon, nurturing a jangly, neo-psychedelic sound that brings to mind early Primal Scream, Supergrass or maybe Oasis as fronted by a man who smiles at the world rather than sneers. The merry band of do-it yourselfers self-released the all-wheat, no-chaff "Rebel Radio" EP late last year, and several of the disc's seven songs cracked the specialty charts (which track the amount of airplay on "specialty" shows where the DJs program their own music)." - LA Times *********************************************************** Any struggling A&R rep ought to take advantage of this holiday season and jump on the Mere Mortals while Hollywood naps. Their self-made "Rebel Radio" EP is climbing the FMQB charts that track national airplay on new music radio shows. Not only are the Mere Mortals the only unsigned band on the Single chart where they're 15, but they're 10 on the Album chart. This year they replaced their bass player with Japanese hellion Mimi Star, formerly of Rayon, put out their EP and played everywhere they could. Indie 103's Jonesy called Rebel Radio an "amazing sounding EP", and the fact that they're rubbing shoulders on the charts with The Decemberists, Veruca Salt, and ... And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead should raise at least a few eyebrows. -http://www.laist.com Sounds Like: Beauty, Volume, Medication, Cities, Space Stations, High Rises, Runways, Dreams, Drinks, Love.
