A little rock action

I understand how people can feel that Mogwai is pretentious, but their music really resonates with me. It's moody and intense and emotional. And they were, for me at least, all that last night at the 930 Club. I had chills several times during the performance, and what was so great about it was that they only played 2-3 songs from their new album. Most of the songs they played were older. When they started playing a really old song, Mogwai Fear Satan, I knew it was coming, but I was still surprised by the aural onslaught at the end of the song. For the encore, they played their epic My Father My King (Part 1 2 3), which was frickin' awesome.
