Mogwai Announce New Album ‘Atomic’

13th Jan 2016

Scottish post-rock pioneers Mogwai have announced the release of their new album ‘Atomic’ on 1st April via Rock Action.

The album is composed of reworked versions of the music recorded for the soundtrack to director Mark Cousin’s acclaimed documentary Atomic: Living In Dread and Promise, which first aired on BBC Four last summer.

You can listen to a brand new track ‘U-235’ in full below.

Mogwai’s Stuart Braithwaite says: “The Atomic soundtrack is one of the most intense and fulfilling projects we’ve taken on as a band. Ever since we went to Hiroshima to play and visited the peace park this has been a subject very close to us. The end results, both the film score and the record are pieces I’m extremely proud of.”
