I done voted Mogwai purely on the strength of 2 Rights Make 1 Wrong live. Which is chest-jiggling-bassy-awesome

this is not a very easy one on account of 'yanqui uxo'. still going with mogwai, but it's marginal. EITS are the Coldplay of post-rock (although TEINACDP is a fantastic record, I will freely admit).

"EITS are the Coldplay of post-rock "

words of wisdom.
they are more of an indie,accesible post rock, even though (i think) the 3 bands are succesfull at the same level.

How about NONE OF THE ABOVE

I'm no expert on any of these bands, but I like Mogwai the most. They seem to be less serious, less artsy, more prolific, and more varied than the other two. Am I off?

less serious: yes
less artsy: debatable, but probably. the last album was definitely less artsy, it was also shit.
more prolific: yes
more varied: yes

so...you're on!

However, the best, most timeless, and ultimately most important single artistic statement from any of these bands, I repeat, is by a MILE 'Yanqui UXO'.
