Mogwai – “Remurdered”
Here’s a fun emerging trend: Mogwai albums named after genres that don’t have anything to do with the music that Mogwai make. The Scottish post-rock titans’ last proper album was 2011’s Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will, and they’ll follow it up early next year with a new LP called Rave Tapes. Mogwai co-produced the album with former Delgados drummer Paul Savage, a collaborator of the band going back to the Young Team days. And along with the announcement, they’ve shared a churning, ominous, synth-laced six-minute instrumental called “Remurdered,” which reminds me a bit of the great Italian horror-film soundtrackers Goblin. Listen to it and check out the album’s tracklist below.
