Another belter! The world is a better place with this song in it.

[@siaykoskalsky5599]

Absolutely!

[@majortom8990]

They are pulling back a 90s post punk sound, vocals kind of remind me of Dianogah, which I think were insprired by Mogwai. Maybe they are trying to remind us of a better time 25 years ago...

[@rmayhem9658]

Hope it doesn't end up as the soundtrack to 'inspiring' corporate videos in a year or two.

What is lame is this sounds the most poppy i;ve ever heard the band they used to be earthy and atmospheric. This is just gash perfect for radio fodder

[@Mr121953]

They have been around since the mid 90's and recorded some amazing albums ... Their stuff is mostly instrumental . This track is rare to have vocals...Superb band. Loved by the late great John Peel UK DJ .

[@philipslimak5675]

A hymn of my 2021. The year I experienced a tremendous loss which changed my life forever for the worse, but it is precisely in this period when Mogwai showed me how it's important to have songs like this. After all these losses the memory is all you have left, and songs like this precisely guide us to our memory. I think "Cody" is about that. They stayed with me through all of these tough times. I like how predominantly optimistic chords go on par with sad lyrics, and I think this contrast shows exactly what real optimism is. It is possible to cry, to dream and to laugh to this song equally. The sense of despair in this song is uniquely comforting, partially maybe because it goes on par with acceptance

[@superawesomescience911]

their sound is never the same but always uniquely mogwai.

[@dread-cthulu]

This song hits me right in the feels. Full of love and hope, yet sad.

Tengo que confesar que siento una veneración especial por Mogwai y guardo en mi regazo algunos de sus discos como verdaderas joyitas a las que me gusta volver en momentos de paz. Su música siempre resulta estimulante, a pesar de algún bajón en su discografía. Editan su décimo disco, si no contamos sus bandas sonoras, evidentemente a estas alturas no van a cambiar su fórmula musical, ellos siguen recreando espacios sonoros que oscilan entre el sosiego y la furia, como en un tobogán sin fin. En esta ocasión es verdad que los escoceses han jugado con nuevos elementos, como modelos de sintetizador no empleados hasta ahora o algunas cajas de ritmo, pero ellos siguen su propia senda. “As The Love Continues” es un disco espectacular. Llega cuando Mogwai conmemora sus 25 años de carrera, desde la aparición de su primer single fieles a su clásico sonido que nos dejó perplejos desde entonces y que muchos han intentado imitar a lo largo de estos años. Música independiente novedades.

Great tune , sounds very shoe gaze to me, reminds me of Ride/ Slow Dive.

[@thecroft6070]

Chord sequence and general vibe recall Dayvan Cowboy by Boards of Canada, which is a good thing

[@PhantomPhace]

i'm getting a little pop/emo from this song

[@luuugmail191]

the instrumental in the verses sound just like the Red Hot Chili Peppers Don't Forget Me, live at La Cigale intro. It is still a good song though.

[@catul]

Hum also comes to mind for some reason

[@StuMcKinlay]

100% I was deep into electronica in the 90s but also loved shoegaze on the side... I thought of Ride immediately when I listened to the album the first time.

[@petthepetheo]

dedicated to my best friend who got sick from a rare disease that made him forget me but I will never forget. we used to listen fine music and songs like this one.......the song says what we used to do : So much fun hanging around in the dark. Disappear in the sun All gone It took a while just to think Of home

[@RenegadeRouser]

“‘Ritchie Sacramento’’s title came from a misunderstanding a friend of ours had about how to say Ryuichi Sakamoto. The lyrics were inspired by a story Bob Nastanovich shared about his friend and bandmate David Berman who proclaimed ‘Rise Crystal Spear’ as he threw a shovel at a sports car. The song is dedicated to all the musician friends we’ve lost over the years.” - Stuart Braithwaite Quote from Pitchforks article "Mogwai Share Video for New Song “Ritchie Sacramento”: Watch", 21 January 2021 In memory of Ryuichi Sakamoto and all musicians we have lost.

Arise crystal spear, fly-through over me Suddenly gone from here, left alone on the road What brings you back?
