DESCRIPTION:
Debut 1997 Rock LP Represed on 2x12" Sky Blue Vinyl - Mogwai’s groundbreaking debut album Young Team. The original recording engineer for the album, Paul Savage, whose production credits include Franz Ferdinand and The Twilight Sad, has remastered the album for this special reissue. Recorded in what was soon to become Chemikal Underground’s own Chem19 studios by label owner and The Delgados’ drummer Paul Savage (for the princely sum of £1.5000), the sessions were, by the band’s own admission, ‘turbulent, disorganised and hastily mixed’.
When Mogwai crept into earshot in 1997, post-rock was still a relatively novel idea. The band themselves seem nonplussed by the awkward definition, but what they presented in their brooding, orchestral compositions for the traditional band set up were certainly taking rock music into exciting, uncharted territory. There's lyrical beauty in the playing on this, their debut album, and moments of searing intensity where it counts. These qualities sound all the better for the brilliant remastering treatment, which helps the album positively leap off the sky blue vinyl. Lifelong fans will rejoice, and new arrivals will find their minds blown by a true landmark debut from this most mighty of alternative rock bands.
