[scottish folk songs] & [guns 'n' roses covers ep]	*scrapped*?
both of these projects were mooted in interview and mentioned on mogwai's official website, but as of june 2004 it is believed that no recording has taken place for either ep.

[chino ep]	*scrapped*?
cortez (tbc) mogwai asked deftones singer chino moreno to add vocals to a track recorded during the sessions for 'rock action', with the working title of 'cortez'. recording and touring schedules meant that this never happened. cat power and pj harvey were also approached.

drowned in sound review (?? 1997): [http://drownedinsound.com/releases/5077/reviews/647]

"track 1, simply called untitled starts with drifting guitars building up to a driving atmosphere laden with haunting vocals before gently placing you on the ground with the words of a monologue bringing you to your senses. the next track quiet stereo dee builds you up gradually leaving you expectant for a dramatic end but instead drifts off into space. this brings us to the final track arundel is a papa m cover and is a gentle piano instrumental, a relaxing end to a great single. this is one of mogwai's best singles since no education = no future and it's a shame that it is limited."

The 'missing minute' has been shaved off by removing a few seconds of beats from the start, fading out 20 seconds more quickly at the end, and by the removal of a couple of sections (totalling approx 35 seconds) from the main body of the track.

'mexican grand prix'	7th feb 2011
7": rock action [rockact54] mexican grand prix slight domestic First pressing - 1500 black vinyl Second pressing - 500 white vinyl

piccadilly records review:

despite the building intensity, the a-side, which features luke sutherland (long fin killie) on vocals, isn’t exactly what you’d expect from them. (i’ve heard this on the radio a couple of times and not realised who it was.) driven by a neu-esque motorik beat , there are layers of keyboard and guitar topped with whispered / vocoder vocals.
the b-side "slight domestic" is exclusive to this single and is a bit more like mogwai of old. an instrumental with layers of piano, strings, guitar and drums that rise to a crushing crescendo before dropping back down to a gentle finish.
