Kids Will Be Skeletons (the Mogwai thread)

[psychobain]

I haven't heard any Mogwai since Come On Die Young, maybe I'll check this out.

[Birds in Hell]

Hey, so I downloaded this Les Revenants thing and it ain't bad.

you need the hawk is howling and the new one

[Bob Loblaw]

Forgot about this. Will download tonight.

[psychobain]

No Medicine For Regret.

[bodysnatcher]

I'm hoping they are playing Coahella and will add more West Coast dates later. I can't believe they would have NO Cali dates.

Late to this, but...
Yeah pretty good lock that they are playing Coachella and Sasquatch. They probably aren't playing any other Cali dates at the beginning bc of an exclusion deal with Coach.. maybe they'll add some later in the summer though

[Bob Loblaw]

I'm not crazy about this new sound =/

[Kevin Davis]

Try this on for size: Mogwai meets Steve Albini:


Buncha badass noise at the end.

[LetMeSleep]

MFMK was so immense live. Haven't heard it for over a decade.

No Cali or AZ dates. Weird. Looks like a trip to ABQ for me.

the Belly Up tavern show should be all kinds of awesome. Venue is pretty small

too late.

I dont know what to think. Its not what I expected. I like parts of it, but it doesn't seem to add up to much.

I feel like I've heard all this before by other, less talented bands. Is that good?

[nyquillyn]

I love it.

[BurtReynolds]

I might grow on me.
