Mobile - Tales from the City
Like Simple Plan, Montreal’s Mobile are francophone rockers who found an audience outside Quebec with their English songs. And like the juvenile pop-punkers, Mobile has achieved this with a derivative, so-stupid-it’s-smart approach to music. The band’s sophomore album continues in the same retro ’80s dance-rock vein as its debut, Tomorrow Starts Today, with idiotic lyrics, chiming synths and grinding guitars on songs like “Gravity,” “No Tomorrow” and a radio-tailored piece of dreck called “The Killer.”
