I think we were all surprised that Mogwai had announced a new release so shortly after they put out a new album, even if it is just an EP. You’ll be even more surprised when you hear Earth Division, because it’s very un-Mogwai like. Today you can hear the opening track “Get To France,” which really just serves as an introduction to the EP, but even still, it’s worth checking out because it is a beautiful and cinematic little piece.

Mogwai – “Get To France”

The Earth Division EP is set for release on September 13th on Sub Pop in North America, and the day before in Europe on Mogwai’s own Rock Action Records.
