Description:

Glasgow's greatest post-rock treasures, Mogwai, have completed a soundtrack that they say was inspired by their visit to Hiroshima! This work is a compilation of reworked soundtrack material from Atomic: Living In Dread and Promise, a documentary directed by Mark Cousins that aired on the BBC in August 2015. Atomic is a film about our fear of nuclear weapons, the protest marches, the Cold War, the threat of military force, and Chernobyl and Fukushima. Interspersed on the other hand is the sublime beauty of the atomic world and how X-rays and MRI scans have played a major role in improving human life. Liner notes included (to be announced).
