Moving Units


Moving Units is a dance punk band from Los Angeles, California.

History

The band was formed in 2001 by Chris Hathwell, Blake Miller, and Johan Boegli, when Hathwell's previous band, Festival of Dead Deer, broke up. They released their debut EP, Moving Units, on Three One G in early 2002. Their touring experience includes opening slots for Hot Hot Heat, the Pixies, and Blur. Their debut full-length album, Dangerous Dreams, was released on October 12, 2004 by Palm Pictures.

Most recently opening for Nine Inch Nails on the first half of their 2006 tour, after that, Moving Units released their second studio album, Hexes For Exes, an album more concentrated in the indie side, forgetting a bit of the funk. The album will be released on Metropolis Records (who they signed with in January of 2007) and the first single, Pink Thoughts, was already released in the band's MySpace.

Blake also has his own MySpace in which he remixes songs and puts his own demos up at his Myspace

Hexes For Exes was leaked Friday, August 17, at 2:51 PM, a month and a half before its release date.
