With Tales from the City the band doesn’t intend to leave any margin for mischaracterization. “Instead of record reviews that are six and a half, I’d rather it be 10 or zero,” asserts Dominic. “And I think that this album will achieve this.”

Marry that kind of conviction to a devastating live show and an unimpeachable work ethic – this is, after all, the same band that spent three years rehearsing before they even played their first live show – and it’s no wonder that the band are chafing to kick into gear and get the rock rolling as never before. Mobile are, as ever, a band on the move.
