This self-title EP is Moving Units debutant ball - a tangled, tight web of interlocking guitar and bass riffs,dark disco breakdowns, Gang of Four-esque post-punk jangling and new wave elements that the current crop of nu new wavers try to front but can’t seem to pull off.
Comparisons can be made to old schoolers like New Order, Blondie and the Cure, but a retro act this is not. Moving Units is all today, an immediacy choked slice of LA life circa 2002, love in the middle of a fire fight.
