i've already found ùyselmf wondering about the same sort of existential questions. Will I ever stumble upon a band or artist with such a broad and consistent back catalogue? the answer so far is no.
I'm not too sure about ambition but as Al said reading the fantastic biog that i literally SWALLOWED LIKE A FATTY DOUGHNUT last summer, they clearly know : knew what they wanted and more importantly what they didn't want.
MOGWAI haven't been mentioned yet. They alreadyhave a good consistent catalogue, although the last one is really subpar to me, and then the individualiries certainly don't compare with SY's charismatic people.
I dunno.
