Not everyone gets Mogwai, but that's what makes them great. Theirs is a majestic, powerful sound where barely a word is spoken yet it is the antithesis of background music. Album and song titles bemuse, confuse and delight in equal measure and live, they are utterly unstoppable. Recorded at Chem 19 studios with producer Paul Savage (who recorded Young Team), Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will is the band's seventh album. Review: Soaring and Static: Mogwai's Music Will Never Die - Perhaps I'm a little too biased to write a subjective review.... Mogwai's Mr Beast and The Hawk Is Howling are two of my all-time favorite post-rock albums. (I love Explosions in the Sky too.) Mogwai's earlier stuff meanders, almost to a point where you're thinking, "Is this song ever gonna take off?" "Mr. Beast" and "The Hawk is Howling" seem to have less meandering and more structure -- and more melody. Or, in other words, each track has a definite beginning, a middle, and an ending. Mogwai's "Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will" is comparable to the aforementioned albums -- which, for me, is great! The songs are more like jams than anything. Each song builds and soars higher than anything you've heard on the radio (and that's ironic because many of the tracks' melodies are infectiously catchy, much like the bull---- you'd hear on the radio). My favorite track from "The Hawk is Howling" is "The Sun Smells Too Loud" and many of the tracks on "Hardcore..." have a similar, upbeat melody. (Their early stuff isn't characteristically "upbeat," and personally, I prefer the newer, "positive" sound.) "White Noise," "Mexican Grand Prix," "Rano Pano," and "Death Ray" are all triumphant jams. The magic continues with "San Pedro," "Letters to the Metro," and "George Square Thatcher Death Party." (These Scots always give us great titles.) "How to be a Werewolf" and "Too Raging to Cheer" offer plenty of variety and "You're Lionel Richie" is a powerful conclusion (a la "We're No Here" on "Mr. Beast"). This album is amazing. The melodies are timeless and the guitars and drums are beautiful (and savage). THIS is rock music. This album is well-crafted...but as the mix reviews might suggest, it's not for everyone. Review: Mogwai - My First Introduction To These Guys - This is a band that I have been curious about for a while now, but this is the first album I have checked out by them. Mogwai is considered a post rock band by most, but to my ears much of what these guys do could be appealing to progressive rock fans as well. They remind me a lot of prog acts like Guapo, who build layer upon layer of sound often into a shattering climax. This mostly instrumental album (there are vocals on one track) is a feast for the ears covering a lot of musical territory over the course of it's length. Standout tracks include, "Mexican Grand Prix", "San Pedro" and the album closer, "You're Lionel Richie". Really there is not a weak cut on the album. This is really good stuff. I look forward to exploring more of this band's back catalogue. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004GHYCF2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #681,141 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #58,160 in Alternative Rock (CDs & Vinyl) #284,142 in Pop (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (205) | | Date First Available | December 17, 2010 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 15760594 | | Label | SUB POP RECORDS | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | SUB POP RECORDS | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2011 | | Product Dimensions | 5.7 x 0.24 x 5.17 inches; 2.08 ounces | ## Images ![Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51oNe01EnaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soaring and Static: Mogwai's Music Will Never Die *by J***N on March 16, 2011* Perhaps I'm a little too biased to write a subjective review....

Mogwai is considered a post rock band by most, but to my ears much of what these guys do could be appealing to progressive rock fans as well. They remind me a lot of prog acts like Guapo, who build layer upon layer of sound often into a shattering climax. This mostly instrumental album (there are vocals on one track) is a feast for the ears covering a lot of musical territory over the course of it's length.

I look forward to exploring more of this band's back catalogue. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Different. *by Y***O on February 16, 2011* This Mogwai album is either a departure from their norm, or an amalgamation of everything they've done to this point. If you are new to Mogwai, this should probably not be your first listening experience. When I first discovered Mogwai in the early 00's, they were known to me and my friends as the "soundtrack band" This record has many good examples of their lulling lyric-less tracks as are predominantly featured on EP+6 or Hawk is Howling. But the other half is a mixture of their weird ass samples from random TV shows, etc and repetitive guitar rock riffs. Having said that, this album feels detached and not a concept album as I feel a majority of their work is. I hate to say it feels "lazily" put together, but right now (on second listen) it does feel that way. Half the tracks I enjoy, the other half I feel will be often skipped. Rano Pano, their free track available on Amazon.com is not necessarily a very good representation of this record, either. I will say it is one of the better tracks, albeit not their best. I feel that the shiner of this record is actually on disc 2, a 23 minute ballad that is soothing to the soul in their masterful "grandiose magnificence" style and probably worth a purchase for that plus the few existing "singles" on the record. Mogwai definitely still passes the test for me, they probably always will... but given that their catalogue is already quite diverse in style this will likely be a decent addition to a fan's collection. As for the packaging, it is a hardcover "mini book" with a few nice Antony Crook photographs on heavy stock cardboard pages and discs in two respective sleeves. It is nicely put together, and just something a little different than the typical boring jewel case. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/11186993-hardcore-will-never-die-but-you-will](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/11186993-hardcore-will-never-die-but-you-will) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
