Mogwai are one of those instrumental rock bands and so were this band called The Heads who warmed up for Mudhoney at Koko. Or The **** Heads as we called them at the time, ho, ho!
I don’t really wish to be so insulting. I just don’t really get instrumental rock. I mean, even if the voice is purely used as ‘a sound’, surely this would work better than no vocals at all?! I don’t get it. It becomes tiresome and you are expecting a crescendo but you get nothing.
When heavy rock is being played with really heavy bass you need some sort of animalistic screetching to get you through it.
Add some vocals, you know it makes sense!
