Kicking A Dead Pig: Mogwai Songs Remixed

Kicking a Dead Pig is a remix album from Scottish band Mogwai consisting of remixes of previously released tracks (primarily from Young Team) by various artists, including Alec Empire, My Bloody Valentine, and Max Tundra.

The album was originally released in 1998 on the label Eye-Q, who shortly went bust. The album then became relatively hard to find, until "the master tapes mysteriously appeared on Chemikal Underground's doorstep". The album was then re-released on the Chemikal Underground label in 2001, with an additional two tracks forming the basis for a second CD of Mogwai Fear Satan remixes, from My Bloody Valentine, and μ-Ziq.

In 1998, the album was licensed by Eye-Q to the now defunct label, Jetset. The version Jetset released contained all of the Mogwai Fear Satan remixes on a second disc.

Famous quotes containing the words kicking a, kicking, dead and/or songs:

    Kicking and rolling about
    the Fair Grounds, swinging their butts, those
    shanks must be sound to bear up under such
    rollicking measures, prance as they dance
    in Breughel’s great picture, The Kermess.
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    Religion
    Has made an honest woman of the supernatural,
    And we won’t have it kicking over the traces again.
    Christopher Fry (b. 1907)

    Green leaves on a dead tree is our epitaph—green leaves, dear reader, on a dead tree.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me;
    Plant thou no roses at my head, Nor shady cypress tree:
    Be the green grass above me With showers and dewdrops wet;
    And if thou wilt, remember, And if thou wilt, forget.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
