Black Country, New Road have shared a new song.
Following Chaos Space Marine, Bread Song serves as the second single from their upcoming sophomore album, 'Ants From Up There', due out on February 4 via Ninja Tune.
Cast across minimal instrumentation and emotive vocals, the track leans hard into the atmospheric aesthetic of the band's sound. Frontman Isaac Wood commented:
"We wanted to do the first chorus with no time signature. I went to see Steve Reich do Music for 18 Musicians and there's a piece where a bar length is determined by the breadth of the clarinet player, they just play until they run out of breath. I wanted to try that with the whole band, where we don't look at each other, we don't make too many cues, we just try and play without time - but together."
They'll support the record with UK and Ireland dates in April 2022, following their biggest London gig to date at the Roundhouse in February. They also have European shows in the diary for later in 2021 and North American performances scheduled for early 2022. Tickets are on sale.
