Genre: Rock/New Wave Year: 2004 Country: USA Official Site: Moving Units Details: Tracks & Audio Label: Palm Pictures By looking at the cover of the CD, you might expect some kind of Duran Duran offspring. Rather, Moving Units finds its roots in early New Order and Blur period "Boys & Girls" with, here and there, a few hints of other influential bands such as Talking Heads and Bauhaus...

Moving Units have been around since 2001, which means that they've officially outlasted every overhyped trend of the last decade--from dark post-punk and retro synthpop to indie-dance and hipster disco. While the trio reference all these genres in their music, they have survived these fads by always leaving fans wanting more--the new Tension War EP is their first substantial studio recording since 2007's Hexes For Exes--and by deftly combining stylish music with substantial songwriting...

Opening track and previous single, Pink Thoughts, sets the tone for a consistent album of 80s driven dark post punk, with influences from the Cure to Editors and more. Crash 'n' Burn Victims dips into Duran Duran territory in their glorious Planet Earth pomp, while Paper Hearts, one of a clutch of exceptional tracks, is a celebration of all things Strokes. Dark Walls is another stand out track, with an uplifting Cure/Strokes assault, given an added largess of synth sound...

The end of the year quickly approaching, a stack of unreviewed CDs next to my computer and my impending top ten list teasing the fringe of my subconscious - I felt empty. I needed to create something concrete; complete something, feel fulfilled. Oh look! Moving Units. I stumbled across an advertisement for their new disc, Dangerous Dreams, and like Dabney Coleman emerging from the flaming plane wreckage in Cloak and Dagger, so did this disc rise like an immortal from the stack and call to me...

Formed in LA by ex-Festival of Dead Deer member Chris Hathwell, Moving Units is new-wave, punk, and disco rolled into one, and they would be at home at CBGB's or Studio 54. It's amazing how various their appeal could be. Of course, they could be one of those novelty bands that only appeals to one certain group of people, but somehow they come across as one of those bands that doesn't offend anyone...

I'll give the average DOA reader credit for knowing more about the dance-punk movement than I do. To the best of my knowledge, it started with either the Rapture or !!!, at least tangentially involved bands like Franz Ferdinand and the Futureheads (they all cite Gang of Four as influences, so to me they are all brethren), and is probably overdue for a backlash, if it hasn't already begun. My rule is that if a band is too identified with a sudden genre, I'll tune in three years later...
