ahhh, my favorite non-meme....

Felt kind of weak to me. Like Rave Tapes part 2 but less exciting.

finally not a meme reply.
I don't know, after listening to it a few time I'm starting to like it.
I doesn't feel like a good track to release first somehow.

ooh, more electro infused post-rock

uuuuugh

>Every Country's Sun takes two decades of Mogwai's signature, contrasting sounds – towering intensity, pastoral introspection, synth-rock minimalism, DNA-detonating volume – and distills it, beautifully, into 56 concise minutes of gracious elegance, hymnal trance-rock, and transcendental euphoria. Produced by psych-rock luminary Dave Fridmann, it's a structural soundscape built from stark foundations up; from a gentle, twinkling, synth-rock spectre to a solid, blown-out, skyward-thrusting obelisk. There's percussive, dream-state electronics (“Coolverine”), church organs as chariots of existential fire (“Brain Sweeties”), tremulous, foreboding bleeping – possibly from a dying android (“aka 47”). Their most transportive album yet, it also hosts their most fully realized art-pop sing-along of their storied history, “Party In The Dark,” a head-spinning disco-dream double-helix echoing New Order and The Flaming Lips, featuring Braithwaite's seldom-heard melodic vocals declaring he's “directionless and innocent, searching for another piece of mind”. This is music as a keep-out chrysalis, protective audio armor through exalting organs and portentous, dissonant guitar fuzz warping at the edges, bending the world inside-out into a reality in which you'd much rather live. The last three songs ascend into explosive exorcism, closing with the colossal “Every Country's Sun,” its searching intensity whooshing towards infinity in a dazzling cosmic crescendo.

Will give it a listen
Expectations are low though
Will probably end up listening to my young team record for the thousandth time

YT is so good, it's only natural to listen to it obsessively.

Why are your expectations low? You dislike the latest albums?

>>72771316
never fully disliked a Mogwai project but they've fallen into EITS levels of predictability (not full on wallpaper music but getting there) -appreciated rave tapes a bit more for switching up but I'm expecting 6/10 for anything they put out these days.

Young Team was oozing with character and volume dynamic that isn't really there anymore.

I agree that their albums can be a bit hit or miss sometimes.
I don't think that they became predictable as much as they pretty much started the "muh crescendo, man" era of post rock and can sometimes get lost in the copycats.

I listened to the interview this morning and I'm pretty hopeful personally.
