Mogwai

Tenth MOGWAI Album Out Today! Here’s Their New Impressive Score ‘AS THE LOVE CONTINUES’

Posted on by JL

19 February 2021

 

Band: MOGWAI (Scotland)
Active: Since 1995

Album: AS THE LOVE CONTINUES – 10th LP
Producer: Dave Fridmann
Released: 19th February 2021 – Order facilities here
Exactly 25th years ago this day the band released their
debut single Tuner / Lower. No coincidence I guess.

NME verdict: “The Scots paint widescreen scenes of beauty and movingly pay
tribute to the late musician David Berman, though these songs are more suited
to the stage… ‘As The Love Continues’ is an album that opens beautifully but falls
short at times during its second half. Then again, the whole record works so much
better in a live setting – and will continue to do so when Mogwai finally hit the
road again.” Full review here. Score: 3/5.

Turn Up The Volume says: I don’t agree with NME. The Scots’ excel here with
a series of amplified symphonies – mostly instrumental – boggling your mind
and your senses. Impressive score! No doubt about that! Check your ears NME.

Singles: Pat Stains / Ritchie Sacramento / Dry Fantasy

MOGWAI – Released Their Innovative Debut Album ‘YOUNG TEAM’ 20 Years Ago Today…

Going back in sonic history…

27 October 2017

Band: MOGWAI (Scotland)

Album: YOUNG TEAM – debut LP

Released: 27 October 1997 – 20 years ago today…

All Music wrote: “Mogwai’s first full-length album fulfills the promise of their early
singles and EPs, offering a complex, intertwining set of crawling instrumentals, shimmering soundscapes, and shards of noise. Picking up where Ten Rapid left off, Mogwai use the sheer length of an album to their advantage, recording a series of songs that meld together — it’s
easy to forget where one song begins and the other ends. The record itself takes its time to begin, as the sound of chiming processed guitars and murmured sampled vocals floats to the surface. Throughout the album, the sound of the band keeps shifting, and it’s not just through explosions of noise — Mogwai isn’t merely jamming, they have a planned vision, subtly texturing their music with small, telling details. When the epic “Mogwai Fears Satan” draws the album to a close, it becomes clear that the band has expanded the horizons of post-rock, creating a record of sonic invention and emotional force that sounds unlike anything their guitar-based contemporaries have created.”

Turn Up The Volume! says: The first time I heard this noise army and the first time I saw them live (Brussels, 1997) they blew me off my feet with their hypnotic noise escapades. Nothing less than a stunning experience!
