Field Reports From Out-There (Bedazzled, 1997) leverages on the quirky, retro sound of Moog and Farfisa keyboards and on space-rock guitars. But only There's A Light Always Shining and Your Sister Is A Junkie show the genius of Jessamine and Mercury Rev.

The singles Getting Used To Not Fitting In/ Same Street Different Planet (Sorted, 1997), The City (Sorted, 1997) and Widdershins/ Stormtroopers of Moog (Pickled Egg, 1998) clarified the melodic intent of the twins. The sound often borders on synth-pop, albeit with a whimsical twist. Things Are Looking Up (Enraptured, 1998) collects these singles and adds a few gems in different modes: Everything is Nothing is an epic freak-out, Rewriting History is a neurotic ditty in the vein of XTC, Left Behind is a gentle ballad that harks back to San Francisco's 1960s.

Masonic Youth (Out-There, 1998) and Chewingumouth (Rocket Racer, 1999) are the new singles.

Gigglegoo (Freed Unit, 2000) is a more baroque effort but does not significantly alter the formula. The Whistling Song, Linda's Washing Her Hair, Emmeline Angel, Run Down By An Ambulance, Over & Out!, Catch The Next Train Home, Corruption..., Maypole Syrup, Day-Glo Morning, The Charm Of Me, Did Piddy Help?, Message, The Magic Place In The Middle Of Your Face, More Greetings From Ratcliffe Culey

Guidati dai gemelli cantautori Kerry e Gary Gilchrist, i Freed Unit sono un trio di Leicester (Gran Bretagna) che suona un pop psichedelico amatoriale a metà strada tra Stereolab e Oasis.

Field Reports From Out-There (Bedazzled, 1997) fa leva sul particolare suono retro di tastiere Moog e Farfisa e su chitarre space-rock. Ma solo There's A Light Always Shining e Your Sister Is A Junkie mostrano il genio di Jessamine e Mercury Rev.

I singoli Getting Used To Not Fitting In/ Same Street Different Planet (Sorted, 1997), The City (Sorted, 1997) e Widdershins/ Stormtroopers of Moog (Pickled Egg, 1998), rendono chiaro l'intento melodico dei due gemelli. Il sound spesso sconfina nel synth-pop, sebbene con bizzarre distorsioni. Things Are Looking Up (Enraptured, 1998)  contiene questi singoli e aggiunge alcune gemme in differenti modi: Everything Is Nothing è un epico freak-out, Rewriting History è una canzoncina nevrotica sulla scia degli XTC, Left Behind è una ballata dolce che riporta alla San Francisco degli anni '60.

Masonic Youth (Out-There, 1998) e Chewingumouth (Rocket Racer, 1999) sono i nuovi singoli.
