Scottish post-rock legends Mogwai are set to drop their much-anticipated eleventh studio album, The Bad Fire, on January 24, 2025.
This follows the immense success of their 2021 album, As the Love Continues, which debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart.
The Bad Fire will feature 10 tracks, blending the band’s signature expansive soundscapes with deeply personal themes. The album’s title, inspired by a Scottish colloquialism for “hell,” reflects the hardships the band endured in recent years, including personal losses and illness.
Recorded in Lanarkshire with Grammy-winning producer John Congleton, the band describes the creation of this album as both a refuge and a cathartic experience.
The album’s tracklist is as follows:
- Lion Rumpus
- White Heat, Black Sky
- Shadows in the Rain
- A Fragile Tomorrow
- Into the Void
- The Bad Fire
- Echoes in Silence
- Fallen Leaves
- Ascension Loop
- Return to Light
The band has already shared the lead single, Lion Rumpus, accompanied by a stunning video shot in the streets of Manhattan. It captures the raw emotions that fuel this record and offers a glimpse of the sonic journey awaiting fans.
Pre-orders for Mogwai The Bad Fire are now live, with the album available in various formats, including limited-edition vinyl and cassette.
