Mogwai - My Father, My King
(My Father, My King)In both length and structure, Scottish loudness-machine Mogwai’s finest creation is more an entire album than single song. For twenty monstrous minutes, our highland heroes unleash every weapon in their arsenal, from a melody that is literally a prayer to God, to a crescendo that is surely an angry limb of the aforementioned deity crashing down in response, all recorded in teeth-rattling fidelity by Albini himself. Epic is a word that gets bandied about a lot these days; sometimes it is good to remind oneself what it really means.
