Unlimited Music

As a full-time college student without a car, I often find it hard to listen to the radio and find new artists. Because of this, I am especially proud when I manage to stumble across a new band that has more than just a one-hit album. The Canadian rock group Mobile is one of my recent discoveries that I have been recommending to friends for a few months. Tomorrow Starts Today is not only an excellent debut album with the needed radio single-worthy hits, it also is a deep CD with substance.

The first time I heard Mobile was when their third single off this CD was first circulating the radio. “See Right Through Me” is, simply put, a breathtaking song. Not only are the instrumentals and chorus terrific, the “peak” of the song, about two and a half minutes in, is just amazing.

Of course, you can’t have a good album without good songs from the beginning to the end. “Hands Tied” begins the album with rip-rocking vocals and a start-stop type tempo that will keep you coming back. “Lookin’ Out” is a nice song that compliments “See Right Through Me” very well. And “Dusting Down The Stars” is a beautifully-sung song that shows that Mobile has a softer side as well.

Maybe part of my love for this album is due to the fact that, for once, I found them first in my group of friends. But even after a couple of months, I still find myself playing tracks from Tomorrow Starts Today on my iPod. And I still find myself recommending the CD to every friend who likes the same music as I do.

Grade - A- - A very good CD with both good singles and good depth.
