And from the same album, Love song.
From the second album, “Strange Season“, comes the track Close

- A meeting with MOT by Anna Lindgren
I like Mot… but it took me a while to get used to the vocals. It’s a bit too languid for my taste. Most people seem to compare these guys with Nell and even prefer them over Nell. I prefer Nell. I think it lies in the vocals… but still… there’s no denying that ‘Close’ is an amazing song. Simply amazing. I really like the MV as well.
thank you for the post… it introduced MOT to me and i really fell in love with them… many thanks…
Do you know where 못 (Mot) music is sold? (Preferably downloading but CDs would do too.) iTunes doesn’t seem to have anything by them, but then I don’t find iTunes always very handy. They have three entries for 넬 (Nell), but they are listed separately (i.e. not all show when you click ‘more albums by this band’).
I don’t know about downloads, but Mr Kwang seems to have Mot’s CDs still. I think that’s where i got my copies from. Enjoy!
I agree about iTunes. Invaluable when you manage to find things, but so difficult to find.
Thanks, Philip. Someone else (refresh_daemon) just recommended MrKwang to me as well, so I’ll give that a try. Does that mean we have no Korean shop selling Korean music in London?
On a totally random aside, I suppose you don’t know where to get a kimchi pot in London?
You’ll find a restricted selection of commercial K-pop at some HMV stores, I’m told. But I haven’t come across anything decent in the UK. And my favourite CD store in Manhattan K-town is now a tattoo parlour… I’m afraid there’s not much business in real CDs 🙁
Kimchi pots, those giant earthenware things? Might be a challenge. I’ll ask around though!
Not into K-pop… just K-indie. 🙂 I prefer downloading myself (physical CDs are a waste of space for me) but there is little legal downloading when you start looking for something more specialised.
Yeah, those earthenware things! I think they come in different sizes. You sound intimidated, I suppose that means you are not a cook!
I love cooking. I would just never dream of making enough kimchi to fill one of those 3-foot high jars!
I agree on downloads. I’m out of shelf-space for CDs, and I’ve even started downloading lower-priority books for reading on my new Kindle
I think there are smaller than 3-foot ones… from the pictures I have seen at least.
My issue isn’t the shelf-space (though I’m lacking that too), but I’m too nomadic and the less physical things I own, the better (I realise the kimchi pot is a total contradiction here). And although I like the physical feel of books, I know that ebooks are much more suited to my kind of lifestyle – though I am surprised actually that there is still a lot that’s not available in digital format. DVDs are a big problem – been assembling too many and I really wish I could just have them digitally (I only watch films on my computer anyhow).
