the interview show: mobius band

The Mobius Band make a very accessible of electronic-indie rock hybrid. I think a Details magazine music critic described them best, by saying the guys are “rewriting pop songs through washes of electronica, furious shoegaze guitar, and Krautrock repetition, this Brooklyn-by-way-of-Shutesbury-Mass trio have made an album every bit as endlessly playable as their moniker would indicate.”

 

The band’s unappreciated album Heaven is the perfect music for the latest critically-acclaimed 20something angst film. Something starring Shia LaBeouf and Natalie Portman and directed by Cameron Crowe. The pitch would go something like this… “A burnout 20something guy has an unsatisfying job and takes it out on his dedicated girlfriend. She dumps him and it becomes the catalyst for him to quit his deadend job take a life-altering, epiphanies-in-the-rain type road trip.”

 

Why everyone doesn’t know about the Mobius Band, I can’t quite explain, but until everyone notices them, they are the soundtrack for my bittersweet life. And I kinda don’t wanna let you know about them, cuz then they won’t be all mine.
