Errors are Stuart from Mogwai's favouritist band ever. I'm a
little confused by them. They make post rock with varying degrees electronics.
Not a new concept, certainly but there's an uptempo pop tip to this group, They
kind of remind me of bands like The Egg, but other tracks have a
little 65 days Of Static with vocoders feel then a funky Tortoise
crossed with New Order later on. The tracks could benefit from a little
more vocal interjection but there's a definite freshness that sets them up for
praise aplenty. 5 tunes (short) long so it hardly overstays it's welcome either.
Title of the week too - 'How Clean Is Your Acid House?' is on Rock Action
of Scotland, CD only

What their label says...
*In late 2004, having played only a handful of live shows, Errors became one of the most-talked about acts to hail from Glasgow's burgeoning music scene, at which point, in the middle of an Art School dancefloor, Mogwai took them under their wing. *Coming off of the current wave of vibrant left-field music that seems to define the Glasgow music scene at the moment errors embrace the eclectic culture of Glasgow's seminal club nights, They take elements of new-wave, electro, 90's rave, acid-house and make it their own while doffing their cap to the contemporary influence of purveyors of glitch electronica and IDM such as kid606 and Boards Of Canada before melding it together in a package that so far has captured the attention of club kids, indie-kids and DJ's alike. *Mini-album "How Clean Is Your Acid House?" was recorded by the band themselves and mixed by John Cummings in Mogwai's Castle Of Doom studio. *Instrumental soundscapes and plaintive guitar loops dominate creating a record with sublime melancholy and instant boldness which looks set to further cement them as one of Glasgow's most innovative and exciting bands.
