Anyone into these guys? Im slowly getting into them after seeing them on tv and hearing they play with Sigur Ros. I don't know a single thing about them but some of their music sounds excellent. Sigur Ros-ish |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mogwai is awesome, check out the albums Rock Action and Young Team. Also check out the EP entitled My Father My King. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks...I'll be sure to check those out :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they never played or recorded with sigur ros, that's one of those internet hoaxes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
you're kidding me. SUCKY!!!! :( Im greatly hurt |
||||||||
|

If you dont know them, also listen to Godspeed You Black Emperor! A Silver Mt.Zion, Set Fire To Flames, Mercury Rev, Do Make Say Think. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
beware: mercury rev has some real wack shit, like their newest album. deserts songs is great tho. and to clarify, none of those bands taoist just mentioned sound anything like mogwai except godspeed (kinda mogwai with strings). however they're all bands you're likely to enjoy if you like mogwai. i'd also add tortoise, slint (old band), arab strap, my bloody valentine, and hood to that list. |

you dont like all is dream titsworth? The upbeat songs are kind of naff, but I actually prefer it to deserters songs on the whole. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess i just prefer their gutretching stuff; the vocals and lyrics on the new one just piss me off |
||||||||
|
|

I own young team & my father, my king but have heard rock action & some of cody..They're a truly amazing band, sine wave is one of the most powerfully mindblowing songs ive ever heard..oooh and i love all is dream, but i like deserter's much better now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wouldn't say that godspeed you balck emperor! is "mogwai with strings"... it's so much darker and deeper... anyway, mogwai is awesome too. anyone heard the new do make say think album "&yet &yet"? i heard this one song "chinatown" and fell in love with it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
One track of theirs I really like on C.O.D.Y. "Old songs stay til the end..." that one.. Mogwai & the Beta Band are the only semi/non electronic bands I have bothered listening to in the last couple of years |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

mogwai are immense: aside from rock action, i recommend 'ten rapid' which is a collection of early singles and stuff - that's my fave at the moment. also ep+6 which is a collection of eps - many of those tracks are ace. im going to have to agree with taoist blockade on the 'my father my king' suggestion - that song is INTENSE. godspeed are equally good, if not deeper - i'd reckon a good starting point would be the 'lift yr skinny fists like antennas to heaven' double album, or the 'slow riot for new zero kanada' ep (which is like a mini album). anyone seen those guys live? i saw them playing bradford not long ago, and they were fantastiko |

stanley kubrick is amazing (mogwai) they are simply amazing live, but dont seem to come across as well on cd- download some of there live gigs also check-sigur ros,godspeed!!,sonic youth,beta band,aywkubttod |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have the new do make say think, I think &Yet &yet is their best album yet, the drums and bass on the second track are unbelievable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i really like classic noodlanding from the new do make say think, i need to buy that album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yea i've seen godspeed live, favorite concert of my life and obviously i don't really think they're "mogwai with strings", but it's a decent one sentence analogy for someone who knows mogwai but not gybe! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah - they both like their crescendos |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They are god damn loud live. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont know much about them either, must get one of their albums before i see them live, supporting the Cure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i bought do make say thinks "&yet&yet" when i saw them live at colchester - i think they were great - the only annoying thing was some fat twat with a bad bad haircut dancing to it like a retard . godspeed were very intense - i would personally love to catch arab strap live . do make say think imo are the most accesable of the groups mentioned with the exception of sigur ros who are stunning - anybody got a decent quality mp3 of the "duet" song that sigur opened up at ATP with? that song is better than anything i have heard of theirs before . what are set fire to flames reminiscent of? |

mogai suck butt i don't like them at all |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hate mogai too mogwai have their moments tho...... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have the set fire to flames cd, it's really inacessible imo, but it's interesting at points, at least in concept..and the last song is utterly depressingly beautiful |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They do get a bit repetative. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
funny, someone criticizing mogwai's repetition ON AN ELECTRONICA MESSAGE BOARD |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i really like mogwai. come on die young is prolly my favorite! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mogwai are my favourite band ever. yet i sold their cds :[ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nobody has mentioned explosions in the sky in all of this :( also mogwai=good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Has anyone heard Mogwai's cover of Don't Cry by Guns N Roses. It's brilliant and shows that Axl Rose is actually a good songwriter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mogwai were ok supporting the Cure buy very samey. 'Godspeed You! Black Emperor' are much better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
buy=but *still not using the preview function* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mogwai are very great. I am in love with Happy Songs for Happy People. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and explosions in the sky = wow really good stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
explosions in the sky are really good stuff... ever heard aurore rien? in my opinion it's even better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
