Post-rock figureheads Mogwai announce massive European tourMarch 23, 2017 - 14:23 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Mogwai have announced details of a massive, 40-date European and U.S. tour, Gigwise said. The post-rock figureheads will kick off in Norway on October 10 before touring Europe and the U.S. for two months. The tour will wrap up in their hometown of Glasgow. They’ll also perform at Festival No. 6 in Poretmeirion in North Wales in September. Mogwai recently completed with recording sessions with former Flamimg Lips/Mercury Rev producer Dave Fridmann on their yet-to-be-titled new album. Fridmann worked with the band before on their albums Come On Die Young (1999) and Rock Action (2001). The band’s last album was Atomic which was released last year. The album featured reworked soundtrack material that had been composed for the BBC documentary, Atomic: Living In Dread And Promise. Speaking with Noisey last year, the band’s Barry Burns said that Atomic could give an indication of where Mogwai were headed next. He said: “At first, I viewed it as a soundtrack for this TV show, but I think it also shows the direction that the next album might go in. But then again, you never really know until you get together in Glasgow and start playing the songs, so it's quite difficult to predict what the next one's going to be like.” Mogwai tour dates are below. 08 Sep Festival No.6, Portmeirion UK 10 Oct Rockefeller, Oslo , Norway 11 Oct Nobelberget,Stockholm Sweden 12 Oct KB, Malmo Sweden 13 Oct Vega, Copenhagen Denmark 14 Oct Columbiahalle, Berlin Germany 16 Oct Docks, Hamburg Germany 17 Oct E-Werk, Cologne Germany 18 Oct Aeronef, Lille France 20 Oct AB, Brussels Belgium 22 Oct Tivoli Vredenburg Ronda, Utrecht Netherlands 23 Oct Grand Rex, Paris France 25 Oct Riviera, Madrid Spain 26 Oct Reithalle, Basel Switzerland 27 Oct Fabrique, Milan Italy 28 Oct Atlantico, Rome Italy 29 Oct Estragon, Bologna Italy 31 Oct Roxy, Prague Czech Republic 01 Nov Arena, Vienna Austria 02 Nov Taubchenthal, Leipzig Germany 03 Nov Backstage, Munich Germany 20 Nov Observatory N.
