So does anyone have any ideas or guesses for why Mogwai are currently spending so much time in the studio?
Presumably the 'Friend of the night' b-sides are already recorded, yet they've had to spend days over xmas in the studio, and they've allocated time in February.
A film soundtrack? That Steve McQueen project? Some kind of collaboration? Perhaps it's related to the delayed DVD release?

I'm guessing but reckon they're probably recording more music. A shot in the dark I know. Unless 'The Studio' is actually an East Kilbride massage parlour. Then I'd guess they're emptying their bollocks instead. No shit Sherlock etc.

Hopefully they're recording they're long-rumored collaboration with Kronos Quartet. That's something I definitely want to hear. Well, so was the song they were supposed to do with Chino Moreno, but that obviously never happened.

My guess is that the band are rehearsing for the forthcoming London shows.

I apologise for taking the piss! Like you say, more than likely rehearsing or hopefully one of the collaborations they've been talking about...

I'd forgotten rehearsing - that's a likely explanation for some of the time. If you read some of the front-pages from mogwai.co.uk, though, (read brightlight news page), Stuart describes the February studio time as 'recording' not 'rehearsals', and the xmas studio time as 'a bunch of music for a very exciting project'. Sounds like new material, to me.

Have found out that Mogwai are contributing a track to a Bonnie Tyler tribute album, so this is probably what the feb studio time will be.
