About

This screamy pop-punk band from DC wears their politics firmly on their sleeves, which I can respect. It's energetic and busy in all the good ways and super catchy. I find it hard to draw comparisons, but it really sounds like they are from DC. --- GH, Maximum Rocknroll #346, March 2012

A worthy descendent of 1980s D.C. hard-core punk, this three-singer trio pits harsh vocals against guitar interplay that’s tangled yet melodic. --- Mark Jenkins, The Washington Post, Best D.C. Music of 2011.

“Battery Cage,” rips through D.C.’s early punk history in less than two minutes. Channeling Bad Brains and ’80s Dischord fare, lead singer and bassist Pitt Stains rails against factory farming with an overt political rage that’s tough to find in 2011. --- Ryan Little, The Washington City Paper, One Track Mind.

We've all heard them before -- the punk bands that rant and rave for no discernible reason. However, like many of their local predecessors, Mobius Strip's shouting actually has a sense of purpose. ... Unsurprisingly, their songs have the sort of righteous anger that initially identified punk rock as a viable creative outlet for social change. --- DCist, Three Stars.
