The Precipice

To like is to like and to love is to love.  With like, it's something you can tolerate or accept for a brief period of time, but to love is something you are willing to withstand through the test of time.  I like a lot of artists and their music, but it takes something special for me to love it and I know that I love Mogwai.  I think the more I listen to post-rock, the more I appreciate music without lyrics.  Hearing the sounds of the instruments; guitar, drums, bass allows you to make up what you wish to think about at that moment.  Mogwai's sixth album, The Hawk is Howling is one of those albums.

Enjoy!
