Loses Control is the second and final full-length album by Hey Mercedes. It was recorded in 2003, shortly before the band broke up. Afterwards, lead vocalist and guitarist Bob Nanna began recording again under his solo outfit The City on Film, which led to an album released on Grand Theft Autumn Records titled In Formal Introduction in 2005. This is the same record label that also released Hey Mercedes' final EP, Unorchestrated, in the same year. Read more on Last.fm.
Hey Mercedes were an emo band from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, that formed in 1999/2000 after the dissolution of Braid. The band consisted of Bob Nanna on guitar and vocals, Todd Bell on bass and vocals, Mark Dawursk on guitar and vocals and Damon Atkinson on drums. Hey Mercedes proved a more melodic antidote to Bob Nanna's previous band, Braid. With such hits as Stay Six, Our Weekend Starts on Wednesday, Let's Go Blue and Eleven to Your Seven, the band quickly gained popularity in an audience that had never been exposed to the scene.
