"Forever Howlong is Black Country, New Road’s first studio release since 2022's Ants From Up There, and follows 2023's Live at Bush Hall. Now, on studio album three, the band are once again building from the ground up in yet another miraculous musical transformation. The long-awaited new record was produced by James Ford (Fontaines D.C., Arctic Monkeys, Depeche Mode, Blur) and sees Black Country, New Road settled into a new shape in which vocal duties – and most of the song writing – is split between Tyler Hyde, Georgia Ellery, and May Kershaw. 'It created a real through line for the album, having three girls singing,' says Ellery. 'It's definitely very different to Ants From Up There, because of the female perspective - and the music we've made also complements that.' Forever Howlong is an ambitious, meticulously detailed record that includes everything from folk to prog via baroque pop and touches of alt-rock – with nods to everything from Joanna Newsom to Randy Newman via Fiona Apple and Janis Ian – yet all the while retaining that unmistakably unique sound that only this combination of musicians can come up with. Although hugely varied and expansive, the album also feels deeply cohesive and focused, as it takes three distinct voices and styles and seamlessly intersperses them into a new collective sound." - Ninja Tune
