When you don’t fear ruins, “apocalypse” is just another word for opportunity.

This is a central theme of Mobley’s forthcoming full-length debut, We Do Not Fear Ruins, an exploration of the intimate, the infinite, and time itself. The genre-promiscuous, sonically expansive concept album continues the story of the character Jacob Creedmoor – first introduced in Mobley’s 2022 EP, Cry Havoc! – an ordinary man who became radicalized into a Robin Hood-esque hero in an alternate version of the early ‘80s United States. Against a backdrop of futuristic art rock, Jacob fought fascism, pulled off daring heists, and was eventually captured by the government and imprisoned in suspended animation. We Do Not Fear Ruins is the next chapter in Mobley’s ongoing sci-fi epic. The story leaps nearly 300 years into the future, when Jacob awakens in a post-apocalyptic, post-U.S. world. Having lost everyone he's known, he navigates grief, memory, and heartbreak through a range of sonic textures as expansive as the wastelands (or possibly afterlife) he finds himself wandering.
