kirm Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Sounds interesting! Mogwai’s Earth Division EP Out September 13th on Sub Pop Records/ September 12th on Rock Action Having thus far enjoyed a monumental year, with a sold out world tour and the release of the superb and critically acclaimed 7th studio album, Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will, Mogwai are ready to embark upon another chapter. The band are set to release their Earth Division EP, which carries 4- brand new tracks, highlighting a creative departure from the band’s trademark cinematic mantra of pulverizing, scorched guitar riffage, into a more recontextualised domain of hazy electronic distortion, accompanied by spiky wafts of violins, violas, cellos and double bass and jagged keys. Earth Division discretely demonstrates another side of Mogwai’s stratospheric level of brilliance with its ever-rotating, hypnotic soundtracks that drift dreamy into force, while adsorbing into the paranormal. The EP is a collaboration of barded guitar distortion and haunting piano, which might offer the listener something different, but it still carries the band’s hallmarks. Earth Division EP tracklisting: 1. Get To France. 2. Hound Of Winter. 3. Drunk And Crazy. 4. Does This Always Happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerwolf Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Mogwai! One of those bands that can churn out something mindblowing and something assblowing. In other words brilliant or turd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloman Tump Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Does sound interesting. Mogwai kinda always seem to disappoint me, but the publicity blurb does almost sell it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremymacgregor87 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I think I'm pretty much done with Mogwai by now, but maybe this will see them heading back to the slow-builds Try Happy Songs for Happy People. my favourite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
