There are few contemporary bands who can do musical reinvention quite as consistently as Black Country, New Road. From their Mercury Music Prize-nominated debut For the First Time, which touched upon everything from jazz to post-rock via klezmer music, to the art-rock meets chamber pop follow up Ants From Up There (both top 5 charting albums). Then when singer Isaac Wood amicably left shortly after, they wrote an entire set of new songs to tour which ended up on Live at Bush Hall, an album The Guardian claimed was a \u201cmagical resurgence\u201d in a triumphant five-star review. Now, on studio album three, the band are once again building from the ground up in yet another miraculous musical transformation. \u201cBush Hall was a really fun project to find our feet in,\u201d says Charlie Wayne. \u201cBut we toured it to death and we were done with those songs. This album is a new statement of intent for us as a six-piece.\u201d The band have now settled into a new shape in which vocal duties \u2013 and most of the songwriting \u2013 is split between Tyler Hyde, Georgia Ellery, and May Kershaw. \u201cIt 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 compliments that.”<\/p>\n
