Mogwai - The Bad Fire

Mon 27 Jan 2025 to Sun 2 Feb 2025
Feature Sounds

This week's PBS Feature Album is The Bad Fire, the eleventh album by Scottish rock band Mogwai.

Named after a working-class Glaswegian term for Hell, The Bad Fire reflects the difficult time that members of the band were going through at the time of writing. The music of Mogwai is a difficult thing to describe, but an easy thing to experience. At punishing volume, it can annihilate your body, leaving you as little more than a head which should by rights fall helplessly to the ground.

Top Feature Albums of 2024

It’s not unreasonable to argue, as a great philosopher once has, that we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. We take this adage fairly seriously here at PBS. We don’t waste time, and we take every opportunity to move to the beat and to look for hope in the most surprising and unlikely places.
