easily the best gig i've seen this year, i'd say it will stay that way. DO go see them live if you can..it's an (ear blowing!) experience!

If you like Mogwai.. check out From The Sky..

"'Someone to Remember' rivals Mogwai's 'Mogwai Fear Satan' and Explosions In The Sky's 'Memorial' as a crowd pleaser. Sheer bliss..." (the silent ballet)

i agree they are stunning (and stupidly loud) live!

ive been rinsing mr beast and happy songs for happy people recently. Theyre just a ridiculously good band, my favourite song is probably hunted by a freak or travel is dangerous at the moment. When it comes to creating mood and atmosphere theres few better than mogwai.

I need to get some of their albums. I have the ZIDANE soundtrack by them, and it is stunning.

Come On Die Young is a great album, Mogwai are my favorite post-rock band at the moment I think.

A personal favorite for me under Mogwai is their collection of remixes "Kicking a Dead Pig"...always makes it into my playlists...

How good is 'Mr Beast'? Sensational stuff. Really digging these at the moment.

I'm not sure what my favourite Mogwai album is, it's between Mr Beast and the classic Young Team.
Young Team is one of the most intense albums i've heard. I mean, Like Herod, ****ing hell. It's the musical equivalent of being struck by lightning (i'm guessing). Young Team's one of those albums where something is revealed to the listener every time they play it, never gets old. This has reminded me that i reeeally need to buy the CD re-issue that came out recently. Live stuff, yum.
Mr Beast is easier to listen to and is more coherent. Has 2 of my favourite Mogwai songs, Friend Of the Night and the absolutely awesome Glasgow Mega-Snake. I think i listen to Mr Beast more often because of those gorgeous soundscapes.
