I can recommend Mogwai. _Young Team_ is their first and _Come on Die Young_ is
their second. Haven't heard _rock action_ yet, but the first two are kind of
GYBE like, but more drone-oriented, I guess being based on guitars and not
with the adjunct of string instruments. I suppose one could say there's more
of a Labradford feel to several of their tracks really.

The _Fear Satan_ remixes is interesting too with some overhauls by u-ziq and
Aphex Twin IIRC.

Their most GYBE like effort is I believe the recent _EP-6_ release which has a
version of 'Stanley Kubrick'. I don't have that yet, but I recall hearing
Kubrick live on the radio and it came over as heavy as a heavy thing, in the
usual GYBE! like intensity.
