Mogwai - The Bad Fire in Review
So, the new album by Glaswegian post-rock instrumentalist band Mogwai was released on January 24th on Rock Action Records in the UK and Europe and Temporary Residence Limited in the US, and I can safely say I expect it to be high on the list as one of the greats of 2025 when December rolls around. Their 11th studio album, not including the various live albums, remix albums and soundtracks they've released over the 30+ years of their career, The Bad Fire, is a sonic and emotionally dynamic masterpiece. I do not say those words lightly. My big stupid grin while writing this, if you can imagine that, speaks volumes.

Goldilocks and The Family of Three. Content Warning.
In the middle of the English countryside, in a quiet and idyllic overgrown forest, there stood a little picturesque cottage. It had a thatched roof, a large window at the front and rear of the property and a white picket fence that surrounded it. There was a small garden patch at the front of the garden where stunning sunflowers grew, while a small number of vegetables and herbs grew in the back garden.

The Untold Story of the Lubkuchenhexe. Content Warning.
The Great Famine revealed the true depths of human desperation. When humanity is pushed to the very edge, they tend to do one thing or the other - try to help as many from falling over or look out for themselves.

Pantheon of Self
did you know when you sit long enough, stare hard enough at one singular vision, out the window, the trees, the meadow or that spider scaling the wall, the world melts away, gradually quietly and all that remains is the feeling of losing one's sense of direction or being.

Franz Ferdinand - The Human Fear in Review
Although I said as part of my ABCommunities Challenge (thanks again, John Cox), that I would try and do something a little different for any communities I've written before in a few times, I love this album so wanted to talk about it.

Little Tommy Stood Up. Honorable Mention in The Moment That Changed Everything Challenge.
Where were you when the moon landing happened? Where were you when Kennedy was shot? Where were you when a policeman brutally squeezed the life force from George Floyd's flesh and bones?
