Dangerous Dreams

Dangerous Dreams is the debut studio album by American dance-punk band Moving Units. It was released on October 12, 2004, by Palm Records. It was their second release, after their 2002 Moving Units EP.

Critical reception
Dangerous Dreams was met with "mixed or average" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 53 based on 12 reviews.

In a review for AllMusic, critic reviewer Heather Phares wrote: "Dangerous Dreams mix of uptight rhythms, angular guitars, and shouty, faux-Brit vocals doesn't invoke nostalgia for late '70s and early '80s. A case of too little, too late, nothing on Moving Units' full-length debut Dangerous Dreams does anything to disprove the feeling that the dance-punk scene is at best overcrowded and at worst approaching rigor mortis any day now." David Spain of LAS Magazine said: "Dangerous Dreams is a passable album that never achieves greatness, nor does it fail miserably, rather residing with the mundane. Jangled, angular guitars and pungent bass lines meander their way through 12 tracks, laced with British-inspired LA vocals."

Writing for Pitchfork, Sam Ubl explained: "Dangerous Dreams is plagued by a pervasive feeling of been there/done that, and the album ultimately sounds like the same two or three tracks on repeat. Moving Units may not be directly responsible for dance-punk's fustiness, but they can't help but suffer from it."
