Citat :
You shouldn’t be reading this. It’s completely redundant. There are
no lyrics on this album, so all the potency, texture and variation of
moods come from instruments alone. Mogwai paint pictures in sound; no
words needed.

This makes them hellish hard to write about. Everything is in the
ear of the beholder: I may hear sadness where you hear laughter. If
writing about music really is akin to dancing about architecture, how
can anyone hope to write about Mogwai? Which is why you shouldn’t be
reading. It’s also why I shouldn’t be writing the text I’ve just told
you not to bother reading. I pen hundreds of thousands of words each
year, and sometimes feel I’m contributing to an ongoing problem. There
are too many words in the world. We are bombarded by them. We pass by
street-signs as we read our latest phone-texts, on our way to the shops
with their proliferation of labels and adverts. Words scroll across our
TV screens. They fill our style mags and free newspapers. They are
plastered across our buses and phone-boxes. But words can lie and,
hell, even at their best they lack precision. It would take screeds of
them to begin to unpack any one track on this album - a track such as
the opener, ‘I’m Jim Morrison, I’m Dead’. Despite the irreverent title
(and Mogwai love an intriguing title, especially one that hoodwinks the
listener), this is a poignant tune, but it is the calm before the storm
of ‘Batcat’, a ferocious and heartfelt thrash that harks back to the
early ‘gonzo’ Mogwai of albums such as ‘Ten Rapid’ and ‘Young Team’.

Glasgow remains the band’s hunting ground, providing a source of
continuing inspiration - the sounds of urban fracture, of desperate
nights, fights and high-rise love affairs. Romance is fleeting but
palpable in a track such as ‘Local Authority’ (see what I mean about
Mogwai and their song-titles?), while ‘Scotland’s Shame’ seems to me
one of the group’s most personal songs.

‘The Sun Smells Too Loud’ sounds the sort of phrase a pal might
utter after too much summertime cider. But it could also be a nod
towards synaesthesia, which would only be fitting, as Mogwai’s music
does conjure up colours, emotions and pictures. This is one of the most
upbeat tracks on what is predominantly a chilled album - rizlas and
cheap hooch in the park, and worlds waiting to be conquered tomorrow.
‘King’s Meadow’ continues the mood, taking us out of the park, homeward
bound: music for day’s end. ‘I Love You, I’m Going to Blow Up Your
School’ (with its titular nod towards cult film ‘Heathers’) adds an
undercurrent of continuous menace which finally explodes six minutes
in, its drama heightened by the protracted build-up. ‘Thank You, Space
Expert’ meantime is the closest thing on the album to a twenty-first
century lament. Maybe I’ve been at the cheap cider myself, but its
melody seems to me to lend itself to massed bagpipes - and isn’t that
something to contemplate? Then again, maybe it’s just me.

(Are you still reading…?)

And so we come to the final song in this elegant and elegiac
hour-long set… and it’s a barnstormer, a guitar-heavy pelter that leads
the listener, step by cautious step, towards the precipice of its
title. But when we step off, do we end up tombstoning or do we soar and
howl like the hawk? That’s something you’ll have to decide for
yourself. All I know is, eleven years in Mogwai still sound like the
future, their five-strong core membership still the coolest gang in
town.

I’m about to stop writing. You’re about stop reading. We’re going to listen instead.

Mogwai are:

Citat :

CETVRTAK 13.11.2008. @ AQUARIUS
MOGWAI
(Škotska)
THE TWILIGHT SAD
(Škotska)
Cetiri godine nakon legendarnog koncerta u klubu Mocvara, Mogwai se
vracaju u Zagreb 13.11., ali ovog puta u prostorije kluba Aquarius.
Mogwai su jedan od najpoznatijih britanskih rock bendova uopce. Bend je
od svog pojavljivanja gotovo postao sinonim za glazbeni pravac poznat pod
imenom post-rock. Osnovani su u Glasgowu sad vec davne 1995. pod
utjecajem bendova poput My Bloody Valentine, Jesus and Mary Chain, post
rock pionira Slint, a s ciljem stvaranja “ozbiljne gitarske glazbe”. Ono
sto najvise karakterizira glazbu Mogwai su duge, najcesce instrumentalne
skladbe kroz koje se redovito provlaci jedna tema koju nadgraduju
stvarajuci napetost naglom izmjenom glasno-tihih djelova i tako
stvarajuci poveznicu izmedu jednostavnosti Erik Satie i bijesa Big
Blacka. Glazba Mogwai je koristena u mnogim filmovima Vanilla Sky,
Fotball Factory, 11th Hour,…, kao i u mnogim TV serijama (CSI, Sex and
the City, The Shield,…). U Zagreb dolaze promovirati svoj novi,
sesti studijski album “The Hawk Is Howling”, koji je izdan u rujnu ove
godine. Clanovi benda su pjesme sa albuma opisali rijecima: “sanjive
balade o zabranjenoj ljubavi koja je posla u krivom smjeru”. Kao
predgrupa nastupit ce The Twilight Sad, takoder iz skotske. Kao utjecaje
na svoju glazbu navode Arab Strap, Daniel Johnston, Phil Spector, Serge
Gainsbourg, Leonard Cohen i mnoge druge. Iako nedavno objavljeni album
“Here, It Never Snowed. Afterwards It Did” karakterizira slojevit zvuk sa
mnogo melodija, uzivo bend sanjivost snimke zamjenjuje sa zidom buke koji
zasigurno posjetitelje njihovog nastupa nece ostaviti ravnodusnima.
Premda je bend tek na pocetku svog stvaralastva, mozemo im gotovo sa
sigurnoscu predvidjeti svijetlu buducnost.

vrata: 20:00, pocetak koncerta: 21:00
