Mogwai's darker loud/quiet moments like 'Xmas Steps' and 'Like Herod', this nine minute epic is a more sanguine affair yet just as rewarding. The shining highlight of the Scottish post-rock outfit's weakest album, 'Rock Action', the word beautiful truly doesn't do '2 Rights Make 1 Wrong' justice. A myriad of instruments and heavily distorted vocals build to a euphoric crescendo, before the pressure is released and solitary chants and trumpets close. Quite possibly their finest hour.
Eels at no.1? Who'd have guessed that?

Isn't Radiohead - Idioteque at Number 1 while 2rights is number 38?
'2 Rights' says 13 of 50 under the photo. I didn't bother to look at the rest of the list, just the start. What sort of idiot would have Radiohead's tedious mewling at no.1?
Yeah, Richard is right
i remember the first time i heard 2 rights on i think mary jane hobbs show on radio 1 or somesuch, i had to park the car to carry on listening. a really terrific track.
