Heaven

Heaven revolves around repeating motifs decoding the secret language of ex-lovers, the betrayals of quote-unquote friends. It's melodies are more dynamic, its themes more direct. Where their previous album still grappled with post-collegiate anxiety, here there are larger questions of control, bewilderment, and loss.

Musically, the album pulses, crackles, and hums. Though Mobius Band has always alternated between a desire to make pop songs and an interest in experimental textures, Heaven's sound is marked by Noam's new obsession - "circuit bent" keyboards. At a time when anyone with a laptop has a wealth of pre-fab electronic noises at their disposal, Heaven's sound is a tribute to Noam's dedicated approach and sui generis sonic research.
