I have owned Young Team for a about 6 months, but never really "got into it", until this week. Great band.

after first listen to Hawk Is Howling i have mixed reactions. its prolly gonna take a few more listens make up my mind

Yeah i still need a few more listens. It seems to follow the same formula as Mr Beast with the piano opener, damn loud song (Batcat) and the more catchy lead song (The Sun Smells Too Loud). Nowhere as immediate as that album though. It's not crap, that's for sure.

EDIT: nevermind, i just watched that link dac posted

young team is excellent, i have yet to delve into they're other stuff tho.

I've only heard Young Team so far, but I definately have an interest in hearing the rest of their material. I've heard the odd song here and there too (like Auto Rock, which I found really incredible), but I guess I'm still somewhat of an unexperienced fan. I'm definately a big fan of the post-rock music I've heard, the slow development of it all, and the whole artistry that seems to be involved with it. So, does anyone have any suggestions as to what album I should maybe try out after Young Team? I'd love any thoughts you might have.

I recently got Mr. Beast, and I thought it was a good album. Off of the first listen, Auto Rock, Acid Food, Team Handed, Friend of the Night, Emergency Trap and I Chose Horses really caught my ear. I was actually going to get the Zidane soundtrack instead, because I'm a big fan of atmospheric kind of music, and I heard the album is more in that vein. Also, jackhammer, you seem to love it, and I respect your musical tastes. It will probably be the next one I get. I am interested in hearing Happy Music for Happy People as well though.

if you have just heard young team i recommend happy songs for happy people i think its their most consistent album.

Mogwai are the finest Post Rock band full stop. To paraphrase Urban Hatemonger 'A brick left on a piano' has never sounded so simply brilliant. I am very surprised that their soundtrack for 'Zidane' is not mentioned more. It is a sublime piece of work.
