Best Mogwai album(s)? 09:45 - Apr 18 with 887 views | unbelievablue | I've never truly got into them before but I enjoy their music - haunting and beautiful (on TV soundtracks and the like). I'm a big Explosions In The Sky fan but I've overdone them recently. I've always found that this kind of instrumental tunage is excellent for concentrating on work, and god knows I've a lot of work to do today (yes yes I know, I should log off TWTD...). Alternatively, recommendations of other bands of this ilk would be grand. | |

Some of the tracks on 'The Hawk is Howling' just build and build like nothing else I have heard - and then unfold into an expression of unknowable terror. Why do I like listening to stuff like that? | |

Rave Tapes is a stand out recent release, great album. Of the older stuff I'd say Happy Songs For Happy People. | | | |

That's how I got into them. I love that show (or at least the first series). | |

Godspeed You ! Black Emperor are indeed truly magnificent as are Mogwai. Slint were doing this sort of thing before the pair of them but I'm not all that aquainted with them. | | | |

Both good calls. Also blue oysters suggestion. If you've not seen it, watch the Zidane film they did the soundtrack for, it's genius. | |
