Black Country, New Road released their debut album ‘For the first time’ in February via Ninja Tune. NME gave the album a five-star review, writing: “‘For The First Time’ doesn’t quite sound like the product of a fully-developed artistic vision. Rather, it fizzes with possibility and intrigue, its (very few) overreaches only adding to the impression that BC,NR are less interested in providing definitive statements than they are continuing to push forward into the unknown.

“Their peak may be years away yet, but this is still some of the most exciting music you’ll hear until then; I’m not sure what more you could ask of a debut.”

The band recently shared a new alternate acoustic version of the album’s latest single ‘Track X’.
