Mogwai have announced full details of their next LP, due out on Valentine’s Day 2011. The band eschewed the PR gunnelsucker and posted the following details about the brilliantly-titled record on their website:
"As you may or may not know Mogwai have been spending the summer recording their new album, we’ve not said much about it so far so this is kind of what this email’s about. So, here goes:
"We’re delighted to announce that the new album called, Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will will be released on 14th February 2011 on Rock Action Records.
"Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will, band’s seventh album, was recorded over the summer at Chem 19 Studios, in Hamilton and mixed at The Castle Of Doom. Hardcore is produced by Mogwai confidante Paul Savage (the man behind Mogwai’s exceptional 1997 Mogwai Young Team album) and is the follow up to 2008’s magnum opus The Hawk Is Howling."
The tracklisting for Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will is as follows:
