Playing a mix of New Wave & soulful Indie Electro, Pleasure Mob have had some critical successes with positive reviews & endorsements from blogs and websites including Noise collective[1], NME and Telegraph.co.uk
In 2010 they started their own label RMSMB Records and released several songs through distributor AWAL including "So Hard" and "Where's My Money" featuring the voice of Peter Dickson. They were also included on Centrepoint's Key To Change album release which featured other artists including Ian Brown and Johnny Marr.
Sarah Champion of Absolute Radio is a fan of Pleasure Mob's track Diamonds. Recently stating on The Unsigned Band Review that:
"The appeal is instant with this track, experimental / funky / disco / rock with vocals a little Squeeze-esque in places (which is a GREAT thing in my book!)"
Gill Mill's of Best Of Myspace, described the band as
"deeper [with] influences that lift this above the usual punk/funk/dance hybrids out there."
Promoter Keir Mills of Bloody Awful Poetry also said of the band:
"Combining the pure pop perfection o, with the filthy intelligence of LCD Soundsystem, 3 piece electro rock outfit Pleasure Mob create hand clenching, fist pumping, foot stomping anthems that loom larger than life over the sum of their parts. A blast from the majestical past, where anthemic choruses were sagaciously constructed and expertly executed rather than whimsicaly thrown up to save a sub-standard song, we wholeheartedly expect Pleasure Mob to tear away the floorboards and blast the slats off the roof. Hold on to what you can, and enjoy the ride.”
Pleasure Mob have played various gigs across the UK and London including venues such as Barfly, Camden Proud, The Macbeth, The Rhythm Factory, The Garage etc.
In 2010 they were showcased on BBC Introducing and performed their track Diamonds.
They are managed by artist manager Marlon Burton.
