Wow, that was hostile...I have 'tried' to like them because 2 or 3 of my firends, who
listen to most of the same music I do, like them and play them all the time and
whether I want to or not, I am exposed to Mogwai. So maybe 'tried' is the wrong word.
I "approached Mogwai with a positive attitude". On several listenes. And I just cringe.

Oh, I don't know...just trying to fit in with all you other 'hipsters'...
obviously, I've offended Mogwai fans. oops...
