The music was composed for Kin, the 2018 American science fiction action film directed by Jonathan and Josh Baker and written by Daniel Casey.[1] Mogwai have previously scored documentaries, but this is their first full film soundtrack. Guitarist Stuart Braithwaite said "It was amazing to do a project that was so different to anything we’ve done before and see how our music fits in a totally different environment to how it’s been used before."[3]
