Mogwai - The Bad Fire

Mon 27 Jan 2025 to Sun 2 Feb 2025
Feature Sounds

This week's PBS Feature Album is The Bad Fire, the eleventh album by Scottish rock band Mogwai.

Named after a working-class Glaswegian term for Hell, The Bad Fire reflects the difficult time that members of the band were going through at the time of writing. The music of Mogwai is a difficult thing to describe, but an easy thing to experience. At punishing volume, it can annihilate your body, leaving you as little more than a head which should by rights fall helplessly to the ground.

Top Feature Albums of 2024

Mon 16 Dec 2024 to Sun 22 Dec 2024
PBS News

It’s not unreasonable to argue, as a great philosopher once has, that we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. We take this adage fairly seriously here at PBS. We don’t waste time, and we take every opportunity to move to the beat and to look for hope in the most surprising and unlikely places.

SO.Crates - Be​-​Sides and Rarities

Mon 9 Dec 2024 to Sun 15 Dec 2024
Feature Sounds

This week's PBS Feature Album is Be-Sides and Rarities, the latest release from Australian hip-hop/neo soul duo SO.Crates.

SO.Crates are a boom-bap prayer sent live and direct from the heart of two of the culture’s most committed students. With a legacy built on releasing a steady flow of cold-crush records and delivering uplifting live performances to the party people, SO.Crates prove that hip-hop’s golden era is not a lost date in time, but a foundational state of mind.
