MogwaiGlasgow noise leviathans Mogwai have beaten a beautiful, brutal retreat through post-rock, melancholia and clamour since their rabid origin more than 10 years ago. The Glasgow quintet’s precious, leaden properties are myriad: euphoric guitar doom, dark metal excellence and transcendent, melodic wonder come as standard. Mogwai are set to gatecrash Triptych with an armament of exclusive preview material: they’re preparing to follow-up their ace fifth album, ‘Mr Beast’ (2006), which headily embodied the Mogwai blueprint: colossal walls of blare, sky-high wracks of distortion, towering psyche blowouts and sublime, beatific, piano refrains. One of popular music’s greatest live vertebrates, Mogwai also steer the good ship Rock Action, whose mercurial roster includes Part Chimp, rememberremember and Errors – the latter of whom are set to join our glorious bedlam-harbingers at Triptych.
