Back in September, Mogwai became one of the first acts to cancel a major tour for 2021 due to ongoing coronavirus restrictions. As well as the aforementioned Glasgow appearance, they had also been scheduled to perform at London’s Roundhouse and Machester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse last month.

Speaking of their milestone chart victory last weekend, Mogwai told the Official Charts Company that they were “unbelievably happy to have the number one album in the UK”, adding that the group never “envisaged either the band or the label being in a position where having a number one record would be a possibility”.

In a review of ‘As The Love Continues’, NME‘s Damian Jones said it’s “an album that opens beautifully but falls short at times during its second half. Then again, the whole record works so much better in a live setting – and will continue to do so when Mogwai finally hit the road again.”
