Mogwai

11.07.2003

Live at Miles Davis Hall

 

Mogwai's strongly pronounced sense of harmony has made them one of the most respected bands on the European post-rock scen. Formed in Glasgow in 1996 under the impetuous of singer and guitarist Stuart Braithwaite, the Scottish sombo excel in the art of contrasting sounds, the perilous exercise of combining tension with explosion, violence with silence. Responsible for four stunning albums, Mogwai confirmed their status as the most important guitar band since the Pixies with the release of Rock Action. Essential music to be consumed without moderation. (FFJM © 2003)
