Rock Action

by: Mogwai

Release Date April 30, 2001
This album was seen as a compromise when compared to the bands first two albums which were were heavier in content and lyrical damage.This album started the electronic sound like the band would master later on in their career,here they were just toying with it,while the sound is certainly accessible,there is the odd dull moment lodged in between a solid enough piece of work.
The band use more vocals than they did before and perhaps after here,and thats fine and there are contributions from the singer of super furry animals and the ex guitarist of slint to boot but with two very short tracks seeming somewhat lost in the bands version of post rock this album isnt perfect,but still enjoyable when it wants to be.
