A free ep by Mogwai

Scottish post rock kings, Mogwai, just released a new ep containing their soundtrack to French thriller series Les Revenants.

Les Revenants ep
(this is the title) has been put out while the series’ finale was airing, but it will also be released as a limited edition 10″ vinyl on January 28 – via their Rock Action label.
A full soundtrack release on vinyl, CD and download will follow on February 25.

You can get the EP here for free and this is the tracklisting:

‘Wizard Motor’
‘Soup’
‘The Huts (Version)’
‘This Messiah Needs Watching (Version)’

John Cummings from the band described the ep this way: “Calmly unsettling. There were hints that there was going to be some kind of action in it, killings and whatnot, and we were a wee bit worried that they were wanting big rock music things, like we’ve done before and we enjoy doing on albums, but sometimes you see a film with a chase sequence and it’s got big rock music on it it’s just ridiculous. So there was a wee bit of that, trying to tone down the impact drama of the music in order for it to support strange goings on… we tried to keep the rock to a minimum”.
