TonyDoug's CD Review: Mercury Pusher, Kiss This Goodbye (Olive Records, 2001) by TonyDoug Wright THE BAND: Dan Corcoran (Bass), Vann Geondeff (Guitars), Gary Spencer (Vocals), and Xtian Spencer (Drums). Matt Bowman (Additional Guitars). THE HISTORY: Gary Spencer (Vocals), TonyDoug Wright (Guitar), and Kristen Ogo (Guitar) formed Mercury Pusher during the spring of 1999 in Dayton, Ohio. The band was completed when Dan Corcoran (Bass) and Xtian Spencer (Drums) joined a month later. It was not long until Mercury Pusher unleashed their original 60's Garage Rock/70's Punk tunes upon the good kids of Oxford, Ohio and Dayton, Ohio. An eponymous EP on Olive Records was released in December of 1999, and a summer 2000 tour of the Midwest, East Coast, and Canada was scheduled. Wright and Ogo left the band during the spring of 2000 and were replaced on guitars by Vann Geondeff and Matt Bowman, respectively. With the new line-up, Mercury Pusher spent the summer of 2000 on tour. Following the tour, they began work on Kiss This Goodbye, their first full-length album for Olive Records. Bowman left the band following some of the early recording sessions in 2000. Kiss This Goodbye was released during the spring of 2001.
