Mogwai - The Bad Fire in Review
So, the new album by Glaswegian post-rock instrumentalist band Mogwai was released on January 24th on Rock Action Records in the UK and Europe and Temporary Residence Limited in the US, and I can safely say I expect it to be high on the list as one of the greats of 2025 when December rolls around. Their 11th studio album, not including the various live albums, remix albums and soundtracks they've released over the 30+ years of their career, The Bad Fire, is a sonic and emotionally dynamic masterpiece. I do not say those words lightly. My big stupid grin while writing this, if you can imagine that, speaks volumes.
