I saw Mogwai in maybe 2000, 2001. I've always heard Dinosaur Jr. and MBV were sickening loud. I saw them both on reunion tours and still couldn't compare to Mogwai. I had to leave the show early and still heard them like three blocks away.
You mean you want somebody to play this song for you at your funeral after your death and that's one of your death wish ..? I mean you can't definitely play the song if you are already dead!!
Exactly the reason I always come back to this version. It’s such a wonderful moment. She’s fully in, just chewing her gum…she gets that head nod, she acknowledges, and boom.
I'm all for drummers having their own feel but it's like she's not even playing with the band on some parts. Snare rolls... The music is floaty so rhythmically there's not much to grab on to externally. The drummer needs to be tight to hold up the intensity and lead the band, instead its like she's trying to lean on the band but in context there's nothing there so she's continuously playing catch up and lagging. Sorry to be harsh but that's what I see.
