Mogwai have slowly become one of the biggest underground bands of the last ten years. Critically adored, they manage genuinely heart achingly beautiful songs and also have the ability to make ears bleed (often at the same time). (Ref Drowned in Sound)
To celebrate the release of their new album the Hawk is Howling and the end of their gig at the Hammersmith Apollo, Mogwai treat London to a monster rave-up featuring a line-up that a lot of festivals would be envious of.
Back in the UK after the US stint of their tour and wanting to celebrate with a party to remember, Mogwai have called upon their friends and, with their help, have managed to put together one of the fattest line-ups London has seen for a long, long time. Not only that, with the help of their friends at Brand New Fiction and Som Bom (the people behind the legendary Super Furry Animals Warehouse Party – if you were one of the lucky ones who managed to get inside) they have also managed to find a killer venue perfect for an event with a varied array of acts. This whole event has been arranged on a mini festival vibe.
With many rooms under numerous railway arches, including outdoor areas, whatever you seek in this rave maze you shall find. If you want techno all night you’ll find it, if you want psychedelic indie-rock beats you’ll find it, or if you want somewhere to chat and chill you’ll find it too! Hoot hoot!!!
