Scots rockers Mogwai are celebrating reaching the No 1 spot in the UK Official Album chart, 25 years after they started in 1995. They've had support from 6Music. This will eventually be a music feature on the Today programme, once we've got over the 6th Form Debating Society that is Salmond v Sturgeon.
There are similarities; Pitchfork reviewed the album as "mountainous songs suffused in nameless sadness", and highlighted in particular the one-chord track "Midnight Fit" - "The song’s shrieking drama, taunted by chords and drums that refuse to alter their courses, gives it a sense of tragic inevitability. It’s like watching someone stumble unknowingly toward an open pit."
