THE MERCY KILLS is a four-piece rock band from St.Kilda (Melbourne). Mark E, Jen X, Nathalie Gelle and Josh Black fell in together over similar tastes in music (Sonic Youth, New York Dolls, Iggy Pop, Ramones.) and the desire to kick out a great live show. Half male-half female distortion fuelled quartet, their music has been described as brash, bold, dirty, energetic, and sleazy. All compliments they'll gladly accept. After recording a couple of EPs, they released their debut album 'Happy To Kill You' in 2013. They've picked up great support tours including Courtney Love, Killing Joke, DeathStars, Misfits, and Mi-Sex. Their track 'Can't Stop' was featured on the soundtrack of an Australian movie called 'Murderdrome', the world's first Rollerderby/slasher/zombie film. With PARADISE MOTEL, their first Europe album release, they're coming for a full throttle tour of clubs and Festivals in Europe.
