Mogwai
Storm Rider:
Mogwai is one of the better indie bands that I've heard, but that isn't really saying a whole lot. I think the whole crescendo thing is a bit gimmicky sometimes, and at first listen (the song was 'Like Herod', as I recall), they just bored me to tears. But I think that was just a poor recommendation, because I've heard some of their work since and liked it more. I really couldn't say much about their discography, as I've only heard scattered bits and pieces of it.
Spinless:
I found Young Team more accessible than Happy Songs.
I am tired of talking about Mogwai now. Let's talk about Shipping News.
Rather Confused:
No! the Satan fearing must be done!
Just saw em myself recently. Nice and lound and a pretty cool setlist. but afterwards I felt, unforfilled? I don't know. I was expecting something at least as fancy a Sigor Ros show and all I got was a basic rock show without the witty banter. Don't get me wrong, it was still great. But I listen to so much Mogwai that I just expected MORE. Does this make me an arsehole or was I just far to sober?
Fine then Shipping News it is. Ive only got Flies the Fields and I like it. Not as many Ups-and-downs as most Post-Rock but still goodly. How's there other stuff compair?

Seeing Sigur Rós live and then expecting another band to top that is the height of unfairness, I think.

Which album would you reccomend?

Flies the Fields, their last album from 2005. And Save Everything, their first album. They're both pretty different, but they're my two favorites.
If youre looking for somthing like Mogawi's Young Team, I'd recommend Flies the Fields.
