Following on almost exactly a year to the day from the release of their acclaimed debut “For the first time”, the band have harnessed the momentum from that record and run full pelt into their second, with “Ants From Up There” managing to strike a skilful balance between feeling like a bold stylistic overhaul of what came before, as well as a natural progression.
　　Released alongside the announcement the band (Lewis Evans, May Kershaw, Charlie Wayne, Luke Mark, Isaac Wood, Tyler Hyde and Georgia Ellery) have also today shared the first single from the album, ‘Chaos Space Marine’, a track that has already become a live favourite with fans since its first public airings earlier this year - combining sprightly violin, rhythmic piano, and stabs of saxophone to create something infectiously fluid that builds to a rousing crescendo. It’s a track that frontman Isaac Wood calls “the best song we’ve ever written.” It’s a chaotic yet coherent creation that ricochets around unpredictably but also seamlessly. “We threw in every idea anyone had with that song,” says Wood. “So the making of it was a really fast, whimsical approach - like throwing all the shit at the wall... and just letting everything stick.”
　　Their debut “For the first time” is a certain 2021 Album of the Year, having received ecstatic reviews from critics and fans alike as well as being shortlisted for the prestigious Mercury Music Prize. Released in February to extensive, global, critical support - perhaps best summed up by The Times who wrote in their 5/5 review that they were "the most exciting band of 2021" and The Observer who called their record "one of the best albums of the year" - the album made a significant dent on the UK Albums Chart where it landed at #4 in its first week, a remarkable achievement for a largely experimental debut record. The album also reached #1 on Any Decent Music, #2 at Album Of The Year and sat at #1 on Rate Your Music for several weeks, remaining the record to generate the most fan reviews and site discussion there this year. Black Country, New Road were also declared Artist Of The Week and Album Of The Week by The Observer, The Line Of Best Fit and Stereogum, and saw features, including covers and reviews, from the likes of Mojo, NPR, CRACK, Uncut, The Quietus, Pitchfork, The FADER, Loud & Quiet, The Face, Paste, The Needle Drop, DIY, NME, CLASH, So Young, Dork and more.
　　With “For the first time” the band melded klezmer, post-rock, indie and an often intense spoken word delivery. On “Ants From Up There” they have expanded on this unique concoction to create a singular sonic middle ground that traverses classical minimalism, indie-folk, pop, alt rock and a distinct tone that is already unique to the band.
　　Recorded at Chale Abbey Studios, Isle Of Wight, across the summer with the band’s long-term live engineer Sergio Maschetzko, it’s also an album that comes loaded with a deep-rooted conviction in the end result. “We were just so hyped the whole time,” says Hyde. “It was such a pleasure to make. I've kind of accepted that this might be the best thing that I'm ever part of for the rest of my life. And that's fine.”
　　Black Country, New Road's live performances have already gained legendary status from fans and has seen them labelled "one of the UK's best live bands" by The Guardian. After the success of their livestream direct from London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre, stand-out performances at SXSW and the BBC 6 Music Festival, and following a sold-out UK tour this summer, high-profile festival appearances, and a 43 date UK & EU tour to follow in the Autumn with sold out US dates next year, the London-based seven-piece today announce further UK & IE dates in support of the album for April 2022, preceded by their biggest London headliner to date at The Roundhouse in February.
　　Black Country, New Road Live at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, mastered by Christian Wright at Abbey Road, will be available as part of the Deluxe LP and CD versions of ‘Ants From Up There’.
　　Fans who pre-order any format of ‘Ants From Up There’ from the Black Country, New Road store, their Bandcamp page and the Ninja Tune shop, will be able to gain access to the pre-sale for the 2022 UK headline tour dates.

一些流水账，碎片听后感

Intro 有心的听者应该可以发现开篇intro和最后一轨Basketball Shoes的收尾是连续的（数字音乐的胜利?），这个在某种意义上对recurring motif的运用从Basketball Shoes末尾（时间戳大概在12:17左右）贯穿到了Intro的终止。 Intro中被小提琴零星点缀，萨克斯作主导的段落重复也许... (展开)

在《天外来蚁》（Ants From Up There）之后

现在是2022年的11月中旬，如果从此刻回首细数2022年的独立音乐大事件的话，那么《天外来蚁》的发行与发行前黑乡新路（Black Country,New Road）乐队人尽皆知的人员变动[乐队主唱艾萨克·伍德（Isaac Wood）因心理问题离队]必定属于那种最轰动的事件，这一波折为《天外来蚁》带... (展开)

随便写写

“我们缺钱......”——BC,NR终于做出了既叫好又叫座的绝唱，虽然它们是刚刚成立的新乐队。这张专辑不再走以“怪异、偏激”为重要卖点的实验摇滚道路。大量1990s-2000s的Alt Rock/Indie Rock声音被融入到了他们的美学体系中。在他们的首专我曾提到，他们与后朋克那种“黑暗、... (展开)

《ANTS FROM UP THERE》

我觉得《ANTS FROM UP THERE》是2022年最好的专辑，甚至这张专辑对乐坛的影响颇具里程碑意义（个人10/10） 1.这张专辑一共十首歌，被切割成三段，每一部分所代表的意义和情绪都是不一样的：乐队成员童年时期对太空/环球旅行/世界的幻想；乐队成员经历了非常破碎的成长经历，期... (展开)

协和飞机，两度跃迁，同我的夜晚

我突然明白了那些漫无边际的飞行里程中的空洞是什么，一次又一次划过夜空时，机窗倒映在云层间的黑影是什么，那是一种没有归宿的眩晕，双脚离地的心悸。直到我的灵魂在气流的碰撞间完全地交给夜空一次，点燃后碎成漫天的星辰，消亡在氧气中，我才得到了新生。我的眼泪化成了养... (展开)

AFUT与illnois

第一次接触21年的作品，一开始的想法是不抱太大期望的，结果发现我错误的思想完全贬低了当代另类音乐圈的魅力。回溯到打雷btd的发行对于另类音乐的首次突破，而后在碧梨的那次最让人们咂舌的格莱美颁奖典礼上达到高潮。历史上从来没有其他另类音乐更加高峰的时刻。谈到这张专... (展开)

（字数太多短评写不下了所以开一篇来抒情）关于BCNR的神话已听到太多，在clockenflap之前曾打开听过，当时毫无感觉，同时现实生活太繁忙&贫穷，也放弃了去HK的念头。两个月之内发生了太多事，重新打开这张沉下心来听，竟然好像听进去了。一个直观的感受是“沉重”。无论... (展开)
