Red face Ceiling Granny by Mogwai is pure classic SP.

On their new album which is out tomorrow - sounds like an unreleased Smashing Pumpkins demo. Big chunky riff which will sound great in a live setting if we ever get to listen to bands live again.

That intro is too repetitive to be SP.

....And the intro is the whole song.

Love Mogwai but i agree, it sounds like a boring ripoff.

Sounds something some lads recorded and put on Napster as a smashing pumpkins demo.

It really isn't as good as The Microdance's latest album though.

And just throwing this out there but it's not as good as anything from Cyr, Shiny and oh so bright volume 1: no past no future no sun, Monuments to an Elegy, Oceania, Teargarden by kalaedyscope volume 2 The Solstice Bear, Teargarden by kaeladyscope volume 1: songs from a sailor, American Gothic, Zeitgeist Red, Zeitgeist Blue, Zeigeist Green, Zeitgeist Silver, or even any of the old shit Smashing Pumpkins released before they broke through with Zeitgeist

Would also like to point out that this isn’t as good as One Of These Archetypes Must DIE by Liefeld

I mean, I love Mogwai and that was my immediate thought this morning when I heard it. Great track imo.

It's probably the weakest track on the album though. Midnight Flit is my current favourite. Great on the headphones.

I listened to it this afternoon pal and it was also better than Ceiling Granny by Mogwai.

I like this album better than the track, but this band's music sounds like a series of demos or an OST.

Being mostly instrumental doesn't help, but they settle on idea after 20 seconds, and then just layer over it for 6 minutes, with the occasional crescendo of reverb. Very little diversion or progression in their tracks.

Thumbs down from me.
