Mogwai - The Bad Fire

Scottish titans Mogwai craft a compelling blend of sprawling soundscapes and charged emotion on The Bad Fire — a record born from personal turbulence and renewed creative fire. Produced by John Congleton, the album mixes icy electronic arpeggios, shoegaze‑tinged walls of guitar, and stirring melodies that hint at both hellish depths and hopeful ascent.

“For those less inclined to kvetching, The Bad Fire is a rich, enveloping delight, a profoundly grim situation turned into music that’s graceful, striking and even optimistic.” — The Guardian
