Mogwai return with new single 'God Gets You Back' and news of a 2025 world tour • News • DIY Magazine

Mogwai are back with new single ‘God Gets You Back’ - a track which is their first release of the year but, apparently, not their last.

The Glasgow four-piece’s latest comes after their 2021 studio album ‘As The Love Continues’, as well as their more recent premiering of Mogwai: If The Stars Had A Sound - a documentary directed by their longstanding collaborator Antony Crook.

Of the new cut, the band’s Barry Burns has explained that it “needed some melody or vocals, but I couldn’t come up with the lyrics so I asked my 7 year old daughter to make some up, and she did and I sang them”.

Watch the official video for ‘God Gets You Back’ below.

Alongside the new single, Mogwai have also announced a run of 2025 tour dates that will see them visit Europe, the UK, Asia, and North America. Tickets are due to go on general sale at 10am this Friday (20th September), with a £1/€1/$1 charitable contribution from every ticket sold to be donated to War Child.
