Melody Maker review, by Daniel Booth

escape from university leads us back to the riverside for a post-midnight double bill featuring campag velocet (fab!fab!fab!) and mogwai (wank!wank!wank!).

mogwai must die. soon. horribly. and preferably involving a torture so gut-wrenchingly heinous that nobody would dare to re-enact this neo-shoegazing crime. except we don't know if stuart, pop's answer to ken barlow, is staring at his shoes, because he hasn't faced us yet. eight minutes in - that's eight gruelling, please-amputate-my-ears-with-a-spanner minutes, mind, of 'with portfolio' or 'like herod', no one can tell - and all we've got is a view of his arse. then he turns round, his face a picture of doltish vacancy, and you realise how attractive his arse was. this is a con, a fuzzy, foggy monstrosity, vile amateurishness masquerading as frontier-breaking experimentation.

at no point does stuart bellow, "neewwwcassssstle! make soommme noizzze!!". at no point do we care.
