Moebius Syndrome

Released by Mercrider Record Co. in 2001 and now available from SC Distribution for the first time, Moebius Syndrome is the precursor to 2004's breakthrough album on Jagjaguwar, The Captain is Dead, Let The Drum Corpse Dance. Minus Story craft melodies and harmonies that dig truly and deeply under your skin, displacing all those lead-filled chiggers of life that keep you low and on the outside. Moebius Syndrome begins to define Minus Story's self-proclaimed "Wall of Crap" sound-resembling a naively recorded pop symphony - much like the music of Circulatory System and Neutral Milk Hotel. It also embraces those indefinable qualities found on records like Mt. Eerie by Microphones or Fragile by Yes. It is experimental pop, through and through, with all the attendant haunted edges.
