Mogwai - My Father, My King - Live HD (at Melt)

[@signalmanmusic4225]

I work in a primary school teaching music and I got my little orchestra to play this as entrance music for assemblies...

[@wirziehendiezeit]

I would love to see a video of that! Mogwai probably as well :D

[@Josh-ov2js]

That's amazing!!!! way to teach them young!

Not all heroes wear capes

[@quietisthenewloud7588]

You are a good teacher

[@signalmanmusic4225]

It sounded great with keyboard, guitar and African drums

[@maelstrommjolnir4877]

Hearing it live from the front row at the Barrowlands is something that shreds your ears for days afterwards...in a good way :)

[@davidcowan4942]

Fantastic. Used to always finish with this in the early days. Feel privileged to have seen them so many times over the years.

[@Timothy2706]

Yup ! This one and Helicon 1 were the best parts...and so fucking LOUD that people ran away covering their ears. Ahahah ! Just LOVED it.

Otra gran catedral de Mogwai

[@dantofoz11]

this is insane

[@binkymagnus]

now imagine it in a small indoor venue -- it's terrifying

[@zombimanos6103]

I saw it at The Metro in Chicago in 2001 & the walls were shaking/vibrating.

[@teethgrinder83]

Spec Bebop my ex GF bought tickets for us to go see them here in Scotland in December since she knew how nuts I am over the band but never been able to drag someone to see them with me (this is since '98!) needless to say I'm not going anymore, it's difficult to say what breaks my heart more, that we are split up or that I won't be seeing Mogwai

[@pcp8989]

@@zombimanos6103 I was there, too, people were running for the exits by the end, lol.

This tune is the traditional tune for the Jewish prayer "avinu malkenu"

[@triggerbunny]

Wasn't there another prayer as well? I was of the understanding that this is a combination of two (thus the two segments of the song) traditional Jewish prayers/melodies that another composer arranged with Mogwai. I think Avinu Malkenu was the driving force of the song and the rhythmic build up of intensity feel likes it connects to that particular prayer for sure.

[@boooringlearning]

perfect, hypnotic

[@stevedoyle3633]

Fucking unbelievable - so much energy...no singer fantastic.

the orange-juice-carton-at-a-gig person at 5:08 is MY person

[@SD_Marc]

There may be a reason for that. When I was in high school the Grateful Dead played at a community college in my neighborhood. One of the kids that worked at the local 7/11 said the deadheads cleaned them out of orange juice before noon. I heard it was an LSD enhancer. Don't know if that's true, or if 5:08 is maybe just healthy.

[@amstotz]

what o fucking MASTER PIECE of post-rock music.

[@Garbage_Eaterr]

I want to go to a Mogwai concert.

[@SD_Marc]

Yes, you do. It is epic.

[@fuj1973]

Bloody brilliant Mogwai. If you like this, check out the New Zealand band called An Emerald City. Similar middle eastern inspired rock.

Hi there! We're currently working on a Mogwai Documentary and looking for clips of the band performing live. Is this your video, or do you know where it originally came from? Please give me a shout :)
