Black Country, New Road unveil ‘Bread Song’
It’s the second single taken from their hotly-anticipated new album, ‘Ants From Up There’.

With their second album ‘Ants From Up There’ set for release on 4th February via Ninja Tune, Black Country, New Road are giving us the latest taste of what to expect with new single ‘Bread Song’.
Speaking about the track, frontman Isaac Wood says: “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.”
