Mogwai is a great band indeed, seen them live one time in A'dam and it was amazing. Songs like 'Killing All The Flies', 'Glasgow Mega-Snake' and 'Fear Satan' are my favorites, but pretty much all there albums are good.

NO! you not like Mr. Beast then? always ignored em for years til I heard that and realised they were good. think my fav is happy songs for happy people though.
had the chance to see em at supersonic last year but saw OM and
SUNN 0))) instead (not a bad thing- they blew my mind).

It's all downhill from Young Team for me I'm afraid. Friend of mine once suggested that Barry Burns is the Yoko Ono of Mogwai, I'm inclined to agree.

Zombi are amazing! I saw them supporting Jesu (who are also fantastic) and they very nearly stole the show - their drummer is an absolute powerhouse.
Mogwai are great. So maybe they phoned it in a bit on the Zidane soundtrack thing but they're still one of the most powerful live bands around.
