I don't know how they managed to make Like Herod more intense but they did. Incredible song.

Considering they are Radio sessions, it is an incredibly intense album. Glad you are liking it.

Mogwai is the best band I've gotten into from MusicBanter, without a doubt.

The whole of Young Team is flawless in my opinion - from the little samples of phone conversations to some of the bridging sections with noises and subtle playing parts - then the whole thing climaxes with "Mogwai Fear Satan", quite possibly the best instrumental I have ever heard, period.

I don't find it overrated in any way - it's quite possibly their strongest album ever, although later stuff is great too - but I find that YT is the one album they sound overflowing with great ideas...


My next favorite would have to be Happy Songs for Happy People... that is freaking fantastic disc full of great music.
