A rock band? Why not? Thus the Mobius Band and their debut THE LOVING SOUNDS OF STATIC mix indie rock with some electronic elements -- and the results come out pretty good. While not as impressive as M83, the Mobius Band make a strong case for themselves. They certainly hew more towards the rock side of things, but there's a bit of New Order that peeks in on "Radio Coup." "Twilight" starts off bucolic and goes emo by the time the vocals come in. The layering in "Close the Door" makes you almost forget about the drum machine in the background. Some of the album, alas, doesn't distinguish itself either as indie rock or electronica, but that can't be said for "I Just Turned 18," a coming-of-age track that rings true. "Philadelphia," similarly works an multiple levels. A promising debut from a label that knows no boundaries.
