Toph leads the discussion and review of The Prayer Chain's 1995 album ‘Mercury' – including, as always, albums + songs on our radar and much more!   Genre bending?  Absolutely.  A masterpiece?  Likely. Killer opportunity to discuss a whole genre and scene of music beloved by the brothers??  You betcha.  Come with us down a joyful road as we revisit, what many would say, is the best "christian rock" album ever created -- by a rebellious, southern California bunch that knew what they were doing, and pieced together something most who followed this genre of music had simply never heard before.  Regardless of the fact that most fans of The Verve, Curve and The Choir had.  But who's counting.  Let us revive, let us remember, and let us discuss the ups and downs of the christian music scene...breaking up with girlfriends...staying in tents in rural Illinois...and other influential bands such as Skullhead, Mama's Head Trip, The Shooks, The Favazza Brothers, and Faith +1.  Just to name a few.  Lastly, we make our plea for the Wings to make the effing playoffs.  Please.  Lord. Enjoy part two!!
