Mogwai

OH MY SWEET JUMPING DEITY!!!

DON'T THROW WATER ON THAT BIPEDAL CAT!!!

DON'T FEED IT AFTER MIDNIGHT OR ITS METABOLISM AND GENERAL PHYSICAL MORPHOLOGY WILL RADICALLY TRANSFORM, LEADING BIOLOGISTS EVERYWHERE TO AWE AT ITS PHENOTYPICAL ELABORATENESS!!!!

DO NOT SHINE BRIGHT LIGHT ON IT OR IT WILL SCREAM LIKE ANNE MURRAY ON SOME OBSCURE CANADIAN HOLIDAY!!!

Er. Wrong mogwai. Sorry.

Mogwai is a band, straight from Glasgow (Mother Scotland). I don't really even know who to compare them to (I keep thinking Dredj but far to few people are actually familiar with them, so, whatever). Just think instrumental rock and roll of the heaviest type, the kind that makes your head weigh down in the front when you listen to it, like lead in your sinuses.

Bad metaphor. Let it go.

Regardless, look for a rich musical experience-notice carefully that when I use the word rich I use it in the same way I would with a food-to imply that it is thick, full of flavor, and if you're not careful a bit overwhelming. You can hear a ton of their work on their homepage, or you can hit myspace.com and rock out. Either way, just catch "Friend of the Night."

The truth will set you free.
