Hot Sale Mogwai – Come On Die Young (Vinyl)

Unlike Young Team, Mogwai’s debut album, which constantly shifted from loud loud to quiet quiet, their second release, 1999’s Come On Die Young, builds tension over eight and a half songs before erupting in the white noise of “Ex-Cowboy,” “Chocky” and “Christmas Steps,” the latter being the only respite from restraint for the riffheads.

Like a bottle of fine wine, Mogwai is not intended to be ingested on every humdrum day you live. It’s not to be played as you drive to the Target to pick up some plastic adhesive hooks.

Keep Come On Die Young on a cedar rack in a damp basement. Reserve it for thunderstorms and candlelight. Its open spaces and moments of silence are meant to be filled with raindrops and whispers of awe.
