MOVING PICTURES
HOT OFF THE PRESS
...This is garage-with-no-limits music, with the blues influences most obvious on ‘Better The Devil You Know’ (with it’s
lovely harmonica parts), and surf and new wave on the mostly instrumental ‘Pull Yourself Together!!!’. There is a Who
feel throughout, though that’s been filtered through a Buff Medways processor to get there...

It’s . . . The Mobbs is 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.

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.

Bursting with retro energy, Northampton trio The Mobbs sum up everything we love about proper British bands.
Their sound, which they describe as 'Blistering!' is a medley of feel good organised chaos, served with a
massive helping of RAAAR! It all started 3 years ago with intention to form a Blues group, the lingerings
of which can still be heard in 'Better the Devil You Know.' But this all went to pot when guitarist and
vocalist Joe B. Humbled and bassist Jimi the Dutch met drummer Cheadle, becoming the noisy, ironic-dance
inducing explosion that we see today.
