I'm listening to them. I've listened to them before, even this album, but right now, the "Mr. Beast" album is one of the best things I've put on my stereo lately. If you don't know them, look them up.

Agreed. Once Auto Rock lures me in, I'm hooked till the end (although I Chose Horses seems a bit weak).

My favorite song is Dial: Revenge. I remember reading dial means revenge in Icelandic or whatever language it is they speak. That song is great, though. As is Cody.

If you like them, you may want to check out Do Make Say Think and maybe even Mum and Rachel's.

Mogwai is great. I also like Sigur Ros and Godspeed You Black Emperor!

You probably like other artists on Constellation, then (like DMST I mentioned above) as a lot are similar in a way. 1-speek bike, especially, rocks the house.

Once again, I'm listening to Mogwai. This time it's the album "Come On Die Young." It helps pass the time and blocks out the chatty Korean women around me.

Used to listen to them but got tired of them around "Rock Action".

I still like to go back and listen to "Come on Die Young" and "Young Team". Christmas Steps blew my mind the first time I listened to it (though a lot of things blew my mind in University). Oh and "Ten Rapid", a collection of early unreleased stuff, has some kick-ass songs on it.

Mogwai are from Glasgow. They were part of a scene started by The Delgadoes who are also really good in an entirely different way. Check out "Universal Audio" and "Hate".
