Mogwai and Fuck Buttons on tour together is like a campaign against hearing. The 2 bands are becoming legends for blistering guitar-driven noise, so the idea of seeing one right after the other makes my ears throb a little. I hope all the musicians invest in those fancy earplugs before they hit the road! Nonetheless, it's an awesome pairing and should be a fantastically fun tour. Mogwai wil...

Awwww, holy fuck buttons. Martin Bulloch, Mogwai's rhythmic force, was rushed to the hospital shortly after the group's ATP performance this past weekend due to complications from a recent pacemaker surgery. Bullock recently had a new pacemaker put in, and, of course, the rest of the guys decided to auction off the old one on eBay (it has since been removed from eBay). Unfortunately, the new pa...

--- - |- While the rest of the world is still queuing up to help the latest Batman movie make a jillion bazillion dollars, which is something like 50 euros, those demographically desirable early adopters now have "Batcat" to check out, from Glasgow post-rockers Mogwai's new one The Hawk Is Howling.

Hey, remember last year when Mogwai canceled all those North American tourdates? Well, they've finally decided to live up to their New Year's resolution to not cancel anymore shows by booking an entire U.S. tour this spring. Now, if only Mogwai could give me back the 63 minutes I spent listening to their most recent album, The Hawk Is Howling (TMT Review), last year, then all would be forgiven....

Directed by Vincent Moon and Nat Le Scouarnec (the masterminds behind La Blogotheque), the film is named Burning and was recorded over three separate nights in Brooklyn.

Mogwai protégés and fellow Scotsmen Errors are fast becoming the flag-bearers for the 'post-electro' movement.
