"A Quality of Mercy" is the debut album from Melbourne’s RVG, led by songwriter Romy Vager: a powerful LP of emotionally engaging work that draws inspiration from post-punk and new wave pop styles.The album title makes reference to an episode of cult TV show The Twilight Zone, which in turn relates to a Shakespearean speech from The Merchant Of Venice. Both the episode and the original quote reflect on concepts of empathy and finding alternative perspectives, key to the philosophical core of this RVG record.
