SPECIAL MOVES - LIVE IN BROOKLYN, NY 2009
MOGWAI
- Ref. XM726H
- ROCK ACTION RECORDS, 2010. Enregistrement 2009.
This edition of Mogwai's new live release, Special Moves (recorded over the course of a three-night residency at Brooklyn's Music Hall Of Williamsburg), features a specially extended triple-vinyl version of the album (with six bonus tracks), plus the eleven-track CD and a beautifully photographed 48-minute concert film by Vincent Moon and Nat Le Scouarnec. The DVD also features an additional 12-minute bonus feature: 'Mogwai Fear Satan: Live At Reims'. This limited edition package also comes with a signed poster and an embroidered patch. Selecting cuts from right across the Glaswegian band's catalogue, Special Moves functions as a pretty impressive greatest hits package, but with the added bonus of capturing this band's considerable presence as a live entity. The recording quality is ever bit as great as it needs to be, delivering the chilly, bell-like tones of 'Cody' with absolute clarity, while 'Hunted By A Freak' and the punishing 'Glasgow Megasnake' sound utterly visceral. One of the album's finest moments comes when long-standing favourite 'Like Herod' dips into a broody lull three minutes or so in, only for the band to erupt with one of their all-time most memorable riffs. The dynamics on this concert rendition are possibly even more dramatic than on the studio original, shifting from pin-drop quietness to booming heaviness with a tightness that most band's could only dream of.
