Smallman Records has signed Edmonton's Our Mercury. The band is currently in the studio with their new album expected in September 2005.

The band, who released Your Medicine in 2003 via defunct Canadian indie Farway Records is described as "melodic pop and soul to old style punk." Vocalist Ben Stevenson promises an album that "shows a newfound self-awareness that we have as a band, to be able to really put our all into these songs, not just hacking blindly away at them,"
