hold the phone, Yanqui was 2002 i fucked up.
gonna call 2005 the soft cutoff and 2009 the firm finale - that year had Other Truths/For Long Tomorrow/Hymn to the Immortal Wind, which ig is a decent note to go out on

Bulgarian Triangles are pretty good yeah, not game changing, but solid.

Hymn to the Immortal Wind is awesome.

Hmm okay so this has gone from dark horse to just maybe my low-key fave Mogwai, until eventually emerging as their irrefutable standout.

Something is happening and I like it.

Eh I mean that album is great, but not sure it deserves being used as a beacon of hope in a counter-argument re Johnny’s statement.

Ah right yeah I guess it was big within the scene, my bad.



I once had a really awkward conversation with a dude from Maybeshewill, I remember wanting to praise his music yet I wasn’t actually sure how to go about it, or what his role in the band actually was. I probably should’ve been paying more attention to the brief introductory cues I was given.
