The Mall (US)

• Konzerte

The Mall is music for punks who dance. In the suburban wasteland of middle America, malls exist as decaying artifacts of conspicuous consumption–forgotten tombs haunted by the ghosts of capitalism’s failures.
Using sequencers and analog synths, the Mall’s Mark Plant raises the dead to get glamorous amidst decay.
Fusing the shimmering, plastic qualities of 80s dance electronica with the punishing, visceral energy of midwestern hardcore,
the Mall soundtracks the liminal space between beauty and anger, celebration and cynicism, resilience and destruction. Performances are as ephemeral as kisses in a movie theater in 1987–and more lethal than radiation fallout from a space probe. The Mall experience is spasming, ecstatic technical disaster.

-Micco Caporale

“The Mall – Time Vehicle Earth
A fan review on Bandcamp described The Mall’s second album Time Vehicle Earth as “the best thing I ever heard in my entire life.” At this point in time I have no easy frame of reference as to where this sits in my own personal canon, but I can tell you that it’s pretty spectacular. A booming, throbbing slab of dancefloor industrial/EBM that fuses the aggressive edge of prime Nitzer Ebb with chart-friendly synth-pop and underground dance music, Time Vehicle Earth inspires extreme reactions because it’s music that steers clear of any soft-bellied middle. It’s all bright flash and hard surfaces, with the occasional glare of microtonal synths—underwhelming isn’t in their vocabulary. – Jeff Terich” / TREBLE
