Well, Mogwai's Stuart Braithwaite is never afraid to speak his mind, and his latest rantings have caused something of a feud between his band and the new outfit from former Test Icicles member Rory Aggwelt - Rat:Att:Agg.
Braithwaite went onto the band's MySpace and wrote the following (the misplaced lower case 'i's are his): "Guys, seriously what the fuck is going on here? I keep hearing your song on MTV2 at night and i'm confused. is it a JOKE? I know i'm getting old but am i missing something? Is there an existential element that i don't get? I like the guitarists clothes but the singer needs medical help. Is it a pastiche on bob the builder? I think it is but the thought scares me".
Responding, Rat:Att:Agg have posted a bulletin as follows (also lacking certain capital letters): "that's pretty funny, I used to like mogwai, I bought 10 Rapid when I was 15 and saw them play shit loads of times (saw them supporting pavement once which was amazing) it's just a shame they continued to write the same song over and over again for the next 10 years. Cheers Stuart, I'm glad we confused you, I think you need it".
