Album Club, December 2016: Mogwai - Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will.
I'd been aware of Mogwai since the mid 90's but never listened to them until I saw them perform this album headlining at End of the Road Festival in 2011. I was hooked. A monumental live act. Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will was probably their most immediate record to date. The vocals remain few and far between, relying on the music to do the talking. Songs are shorter and snappier. But still retain the dynamic shifts from quiet to loud, the melodic bass and distorted guitars. Overall a terrific record but my highlights if pushed are 'White Noise', 'Rano Pano', 'Too Raging To Cheers' and 'You're Lionel Richie'
