Black Country, New Road will release the second album, ‘Ants From Up There’ on February 4th via Ninja Tune. 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.

Their debut ‘For the first time’ is a certain 2021 Album of the Year, having received ecstatic reviews from publications including as NPR, Stereogum, Pitchfork, The FADER, CRACK, Uncut, The Quietus, Loud & Quiet, The Face, Paste, The Needle Drop, DIY, NME, CLASH and fans alike, as well as recently being shortlisted for the UK’s prestigious Mercury Music Prize. The album made a significant dent on the UK Albums Chart where it landed at #4 in its first week, as well as breaking into multiple Billboard Charts including Top Album Sales (#50), Current Album Sales (#26), Tastemaker Albums (#4), Heatseeker Albums (#15) and Emerging Artists (#22).

‘For the first time’ 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.
