Mogwai to spend 2010 in the studio
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 30 September 2009
Mogwai are preparing to return to the studio to record their next album, the follow-up to last year’s ‘The Hawk Is Howling’. With new material currently in the early stages of demoing, the band plan to spend all of next year in the studio.
The band’s Stuart Braithwaite told BBC 6music: “We’ve earmarked all of next year for doing it. I think that everyone’s trying out things at home and probably early next year, we’ll get together and laugh at how bad everybody’s attempts at making music are”.
He added that the band would probably work harder to promote the next album than they have on other releases, as it will be their first through their own label, Rock Action.
Braithwaite continued: “When we do a new record we’ll probably come and play [live] everywhere for a change. I think that our attitudes to activities around the record coming out might change a bit because we’ll be really thinking, ‘We need to push this’. Rather than sitting around asking, ‘What are the label doing to sell our records?’ It will have to be, ‘What have we got to do to sell our record?'”
