Words: Ellie Ward
After only just having shelled out 'Circle Song', The Blinders are back with another sonic aural assault with ‘Forty Days And Forty Nights’.
The latest track to be taken from their upcoming 'Fantasies Of A Stay At Home Psychopath' album, out on May 8 via Modern Sky UK, the follow-up to their 2018 debut album, 'Columbia', it's a hold on to your hats incendiary three- minutes-plus.
Premiered last night (February 25) by Steve Lamacq on BBC 6Music, swiftly followed by John Kennedy on Radio X, ‘Forty Days And Forty Nights’ opens with driving drums and forebodingly warped guitars, that proceed with pulsating passages of calm and chaos.
“It’s about trying to escape what you may call a toxic relationship,” explain the band. “It represents the desperation to get out of the situation that you are in, but also the frustration at not having that craved freedom.”
