As reported here last month, Mogwai will issue two new records this autumn. While details of The Batcat EP were pretty much laid down at the time – 08/09 release date, three tracks including the magnificently titled ‘Stupid Prick Gets Chased by the Police and Loses His Slut Girlfriend’ – new album The Hawk is Howling remained agonisingly untracklisted. We now have that tracklisting.
These tracks will arrive together on the 22nd of September:
‘I'm Jim Morrison, I'm Dead’
‘Batcat’
‘Daphne and The Brain’
‘Local Authority’
‘The Sun Smells Too Loud’
‘Kings Meadow’
‘I Love You, I'm Going To Blow Up Your School’
‘Scotland's Shame’
‘Thank You Space Expert’
‘The Precipice’
And, just as a matter of good practice, here’s what’s on The Batcat EP:
‘Batcat’
‘Stupid Prick Gets Chased by the Police and Loses His Slut Girlfriend’
‘Devil Rides’
Also previously announced were these few UK dates, to which support slots from Fuck Buttons have recently been added:
October
21 Edinburgh Corn Exchange
22 Manchester Academy
24 London Hammersmith Apollo
