Glaswegian shoegazers Mogwai are back with their 7th LP, Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will. Comprising 10 tracks of gorgeous, complex compositions, this five-piece sounds assured and seem to be at the top of their game. They use wonderful textures and layers of sounds that make each song emotionally satisfying and completely addicting. “Letter to the Metro” has a reflective, melancholy feel with a simple keyboard melody while opening track “White Noise” is a joyful soundscape that rivals the emotional punch of Sigur Ros. The band keeps the vocals to a minimum, while also making Hardcore a very accessible album that ranks as one of their best releases to date. – Written by DBosket
