What's your favourite Mogwai album Alex?

[QUOTE=no peros calentes]Not at all, listen to the compositions of their other albums and listen to their live performances. They were never a stripped down band in the first place.[/QUOTE]

That's not the arguement, who remembers Come on Pilgrim anyway? Unless you're a fan no one does. SR is the album people remember and it's Albini's production that put it on the map. The producers of CoP along with the members of the Pixies were well aware of the stripped down sound that Albini and various other bands were coming up with in the 80s. This can be said because of their late enterence into the Indie world and the diverse and sonic sound that was popping up in Boston or had already occured. Also as we well know the Pixies reached the sound they were looking for later on in their career after they were done trying to emulate other bands that came before them.

Wow, how fitting. I've scored number 10,000. This should be closed, and I'll do a mach II of it.

TEN THOUSAND POSTS IN THIS THREAD.

Tangy zizzle 10-31-2005 03:43 PM

Now I'll take the 10,000th reply aswell.

I dug the Beatles and Ornette Coleman last night. This morning I played [I]Worst Case Scenario[/I] by dEUS quite loud so everyone around me could here it. In a few minutes I'm going for a walk to buy some books and a new CD, I'm not sure what album I'll play. I'm not sure if I'll take music with me at all.

OrbDragon 10-31-2005 03:59 PM

Ornette makes me happy.

I was hoping he'd make me sleepy, but it didn't work. So the task was all up to [I]Abbey Road[/I], and s[I]hi[/I]t did it fail man.

I wouldn't say the Pixies ever really had a distinct sound.

Surfer Rosa has the most consistent feeling though.

I can't decide if it really is time for What I've Been Digging Lately, part 2 or not.

The Great Decay 10-31-2005 06:55 PM

It would've been better to stop it at 10,000.

Zappa 10-31-2005 06:56 PM

You know, I can delete 14 posts in less than 5 minutes.

The Great Decay 10-31-2005 06:57 PM

Good call.

The NPC 10-31-2005 06:58 PM

Just let it run to 15,000.

I think that's why I always liked it better as an album. I think Doolittle has some better songs, but Surfer Rosa as a whole just feels right.

Fantômas - [i]The Director's Cut[/i]

just to fit in with the Halloween atmosphere.

Zappa 10-31-2005 07:11 PM

[QUOTE=no peros calentes]Just let it run to 15,000.[/QUOTE]

Better idea.

Tangy zizzle 10-31-2005 07:22 PM

No, delete some posts, and then kill it.

Then I'll make a part deux.

Not yet, just sit tight. Your day of glory will come.

It's not glory. I feel glorious/glorified already.
