AWESOME Scottish (Glasgow) band that I've been listening to for a while.
They're music is so relaxing and unique.
They're really popular in Japan for some reason, but I'd love to see them live.
Some of my favorite songs:

[U][B]Some Info (Wikipaste):[/B][/U]
Mogwai are a Scottish rock band from Glasgow. Formed by Stuart Braithwaite and Dominic Aitchison in 1995, Mogwai have since become one of the most influential and best known names in post-rock.[1] They typically compose instrumental, sometimes lengthy guitar-based pieces in the post-rock tradition. They are usually focused around the elaboration of a single theme and are known for dynamic contrast, melodic bass guitar riffs, their use of guitar distortion and effects. Braithwaite has commented on the absence of lyrics in most of Mogwai's music, saying
"I think most people are not used to having no lyrics to focus on. Lyrics are a real comfort to some people. I guess they like to sing along and when they can't do that with us they can get a bit upset."

I really like post-rock, (it's prob. my favorite genre) but I just can't seem to get into Mogwai.
