The Mobbs
Introduction
The MOBBS present garage punk rock 'n' roll at one hundred miles per hour with an infectious rhythmic ferocity.
Armed to the teeth with an arsenal of influences from the mono-tones of 1960s British beat to a full on whack of punked up rhythm & blues, The MOBBS play a Wilko Johnson infused Billy Childish-like explosion.
With a fist full of inspiration from The Kinks, The Masonics, Bo Diddley & The Headcoats The MOBBS do it their way, the only way they know how; fast, raw and with no dawdling in-between!
The MOBBS have four albums, a 7" single and a 7" EP under their belts. The MOBBS have been aired on many radio stations including BBC 6Music, XFM & Absolute Radio. The MOBBS are currently promoting their fifth latest long playing sonic disturbance "Piffle!"

MEDIA
This is a sound only Brits could make. And they make it so well.
Bibliodiscoteque
You can probably guess from the album title that the band have a rather splendid Britishness about them, not only in their lyrical content but with an image to match, with their proud, but slightly dubious, boast that they have been responsible for a "250% increase in sales of cravats and moustache combs".
Retro Man Blog
...a nonstop party comprised of sonic blasts and rave ups, with an occasional dash of Monty Pythonesque humor adding to the fun.
Broken Hearted Toy
Thunderous debut single on bb rex from a rocket fuelled three piece called the mobbs featuring the two tracks 'jolly good!' and 'muck 'n' bullets'. it's a kinda' garagey, buff medways, 60's roller that gets straight to the point. do not miss.
Rough Trade Records
Enjoying the album. Good work!

You can fit a lot into just 81 seconds. Just ask Northampton trio The Mobbs. On their debut single, "Jolly Good", the group manage to fit in a massive Clash-esque punk riff, three verses and a guitar solo in their own idiosyncratic style. It also marks the first time I've heard the word 'nonchalant' used successfully in a rock song.
