MOGWAI have teamed up with producer Dave Fridmann for a new full length called Every Country’s Sun, slated for a September 1 release via Temporary Residence Ltd., Rock Action Records and Spunk Records. Check out the album’s first single “Coolverin”, as well as loads of the band’s upcoming dates below.
The band’s Stuart Braithwaite commented:
“What’s going on in the world politically and socially has to affect you. It was very much on our minds, especially in America. We were vaguely getting over the Scottish referendum, then the death of David Bowie, along comes Brexit, and then Trump. The album was written in a very turbulent, intense period so I think it maybe feels like some kind of shield from that? That’s maybe just my take. Because it literally was for me.”
