Am I the only one that doesn’t want Mogwai to make another Young Team type album? Seriously, I don’t get it.

I think this (The Hawk is Howling) is one of the best things they’ve done. I dig it way more than Young Team. This feels more cohesive than Young Team, much more grown up sounding. Young Team was cool because along with it’s epicness, there are points in it that you can totally tell it was made by a bunch of guys with a pretty good sense of humor… at least to me.

Young Team may have been a little more raw, but Hawk is Howling sounds a lot more inspired to me. Why would Mogwai want to take a step backward at this point? They’re moving forward, and every time they do it makes more and more of an impact.

Sooooo, yeah. There’s my two cents.
