On their seventh release, and first with with Sub Pop records, Mogwai once again give us an incredible musical landscape to explore. Mogwai, who hail from Glasgow, Scotland, know how to create musical themes and then build them up over the course of six or more minutes like most bands can only dream of doing. The ten guitar driven songs here are meant to be savored and revisited over and over again. It was only after my third listen that I really began to hear the full extent of what Mogwai has created with this album.

Tommy Guerrero, Lifeboats and FolliesTommy Guerrero is a multi-instrumentalist, with a cool and laid back musical style that I just love. On Lifeboats and Follies, Guerrero's latest release, relaxed, jazzy, latin groove-filled songs rule the day. Anchored by swinging drums and smooth bass lines that Dave Brubeck would love, Guerrero is sure-footed as he plays with guitars, horns, and keyboard. While I am not familiar with all of Guerrero's albums, this stands as one of his best of what I have heard.
