Mogwai are a loud band. How loud, you ask? So loud that they recently encouraged fans to sign a petition protesting new laws limiting the volume of UK concerts. They're fighting for their right to absolutely ruin your hearing. Won't you join them?The Scottish noisemakers will probably make you forget about last year's middling The Hawk Is Howling-- and pretty much everything else, for that matter-- when they turn the knobs way past 11 on a U.S. tour starting in April. Until then, they're making their way through Europe and Australia. If listening to your iPod for hours a day will leave you deaf in a matter of a few years, going to any one of these shows will leave you soundless in a matter of a few hours, maybe.

At the top of the year, Scottish post-rock overlords Mogwai released Rave Tapes, which I thought was their strongest album in years. (I’m not overstating things when I say that “The Lord Is Out Of Control” might be my favorite song that they’ve ever recorded.) They’re about to follow it up with a...
