MOUSE EAT MOUSE

RADGE RAVINGS AND REVIEWS FOR MAIR LICHT ALBUMTHE LIST's 50 Best Scottish Bands of all Time. No listing of Scots artists would be complete without Mouse Eat Mouse, an act with whisky in their veins and DNA woven from Harris tweed.FATEA/CAMBRIDGE & BEYOND AWARDS Mair Licht album wins innovation award.IS THIS MUSIC I'm not even going to give this record a score out of five as the breathtaking width of the band's vision transcends such frivolity. Alex BottenTHE HERALD ...there are refrains and choruses that given exposure, might well stand every chance of reaching the singalongalips of the masses. Rob AdamsGLASSWERKS ....the most astoundingly original album I have ever heard...Mouse Eat Mouse is impossible to define, difficult to understand and impossible to ignore. It..s safe to say that there..s no other band like them.WAX LYRICAL Mouse Eat Mouse deserve a statue built in their honour and furthermore it would deserve to be saluted.DAILY RECORD If Burns was alive he'd want to be in MEM. This is utterly uniqueand compelling debut album from Scotland's underground national treasures. It's like Chumbawamba doing John Cooper Clarke in Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting language.UK MUSIC REVIEW Something's going on that just gets inside you...BLUESBUNNY You just can't get bored with this album as there is so much going on that you have to keep returning to it in case you missed something. Even now, we don't think our review does, or even could do, it justice."Music with meaning that tackles social issues such as sectarianism and still succeeds as entertainment is rare indeed."WAX LYRICAL MEM prove it's not enough to be a band that has something to say, you have to be a band that has something to 'teach.' Things get brighter the longer you stand in their shadow, their shade is a treat compared to the blinding hell of popular sunlight."You have no idea how exhausting it is to being part of the audience at your gigs."IS THIS MUSIC Mouse Eat Mouse are unique, almost impossible to describe and utterly essential. Are they folk? Are they indie? Does it matter? I dont want to lessen this record bycomparing them to anyone else, partly because it wouldnt be anything like them no matter what I say but mostly because it would cheapen Mouse Eat Mouse to mention any other band in the same sentence. Im not even going to give this record a score out of five as the breathtaking width of the bands vision transcends such frivolity.... this is a landmark record in Scottish music.TASTY FANZINE 'Mair Licht' is beautiful gentle and yet powerfully equipped to educate and entertain. Impressive!!
