When I heard the album when it was available for stream, it jumped out at me. I really didn't have any expectation with a new Mogwai album, but this one surprised me.
To my ears, 'Rave Tapes' is almost like a pop album. Parts of it have the aroma of, 'Come On Die Young.' My last Mogwai purchase was, 'Mr. Beast.' That was also the last time I saw them live. I will be seeing this tour when they play Houston in April.
In the future, I sure would like to see Mogwai be part of the, 'In The Fishtank' series. Maybe partnered with someone like, M83 or a Lætitia Sadier.
