Fulham Road Lights
Ill-adjusted
I've been really getting into Mogwai recently after my mate got tickets for the February tour and, having always known the name of the band but never really listening to them, I decided to give them a go. I've always liked Sigur Ros and Mogwai came across as a much more interesting, cleverer version (although this is an over-generalisation based on the fact that it's the same genre, Sigur Ros are great in their own way). Nearly every song from their five (I think) albums has a real achey, beautiful feel, largely eschewing vocals in favour of these very grand soundscapes. It's music to relax to and it's music to have a very artistic experience to, there is just so many layers to the sound. I think this is true of a lot of post-rock bands and it's going to sound amazing live IMO. Any other fans of the genre out there? Who are your favourite bands?
