Our new album The Hawk Is Howling is released by PIAS/Wall Of Sound on September 22nd and Matador in America on September 23rd. It is just over 63 minutes long. It was recorded by Andy Miller at Chem 19 in February apart from one song which was recorded by Tony Doogan at Castle Of Doom last summer.

the track recorded in 2007 is 'the sun smells too loud'. thanks stuart.

Yet again, Mogwai titles never fail to amuse me!

yes there are some crackers here (and i wonder if "kings meadow" is named after the location of tesco in reading?!) but does anyone else think that track 3 is misspelled and should be "daphne and the brain", as in the bird off of scooby doo? whatever, can't wait to hear this record after the QEH show.

cheers,
