The history of MOB RESEARCH is closely connected to the tragic death of their bassist Paul Raven (Killing Joke, Prong, Ministry) who formed the band with Mark Gemini Thwaite (The Mission, Peter Murphy) in 2007.

Warrior Soul frontman Kory Clarke and ex-Queens Of The Stone Age drummer Nick Lucero completed the line-up. Shortly after finishing the recordings for their debut album HOLY CITY ZOO Paul Raven died, so the finishing of the album was delayed until 2009.

The album was mixed by Tim Palmer and others. Palmer has also been in charge for the last HIM albums. The result is dirty industrial-rock that shows you what can be expected from these guys in the future.

Some might say that the songs on the album sound like a mixture between Ministry and Killing Joke but with Kory Clarke's snotty voice and Mark G. Thwaite's sophisticated guitars they do sound different. The remixes( SinDaddy, etc) reflect Mob Researchs own style, they are quite amazing and a great addition to the regular versions.
