Mogwai (soundtrack, rock, album, title, track)

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.

Have you heard 'Government Comissions'? It's a collection of their BBC sessions from 1996-2003. Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant. I only picked up this and 'Mr Beast' last week for £3 each. Chuffed is'nt the word!

Naa, but that sounds good! Where did you get it for that much?

Local indie store. Always support the locals! LMK if you want GC.

And i thought my record stores were cheap (a fiver mostly for some pretty hard to find stuff)!
I might have a look for it at some point, trying to tone down my download habits though!

You are lucky, piccadilly records is a leech.

I'm going to stop downloading leaks at some point, honest.
