i picked this up today. it is a rather excellent collection of ten songs from bbc sessions throughout 1996-2003, and is dedicated to john peel in the liner note.
like herod just dropkicked my ears. really, most of these tracks are better than the studio versions and are easy to recommend. it's enough to satisfy me until the next proper album.
kudos to mogwai for putting this out for the fans who may never see them live.

i had heard it played in a shop, months before its release and i liked it...
would it be a good choice for a newcomer, or would a "proper" album be better? (probably)
is EP+6 good? it has a nice cover art.

fortunately, i stay in the same city as them and have seen them loads over the years, i've met some of them and they are real cool.
optimus - where do you stay? undoubtedly they will eventually tour near you sometime, unless you live at the north pole or sumthin...

Is this the same band that said they're punk rock because they don't have lyrics? The oh-so knowing title "government commissions", for a commercial release.... just makes me want to kick they're Kappa'd arses through the top o' th'r lazy Slint wanabee heeds.
