Archive material and source history
Mobtown started in Baltimore in 1991, with Dan "Soupy" Campbell on vocals and guitar. Their debut album 'Pneumonia' came out in 1993, and it had the kind of raw, emotive punk sound that fit right into the scene at the time. The band's lineup included Matt Oberst on guitar, Brian Burris on bass, and Zack Cole on drums.
In 1994, they put out 'Pets Go to Heaven,' a single that got a lot of attention. They followed it with albums like 'Dear You' in 1996 and 'Birds and Cages' in 1998.
After a break, Mobtown came back in 2003 with 'Monuments,' which felt a bit more considered but still had their energy. They kept putting out records, including 'The Beggar and the Snake' in 2010 and 'Take Me to Heaven' in 2019. Another song people remember is 'Remember.'
