    From the Western scenic shifts of “Two Horses” to the twee operatics of “For the Cold Country,” there are risks taken everywhere, ultimately paying off in an album bursting with explorative creativity.

    Moments of brilliance emerge when Black Country New Road’s theatricality and emotional depth align, but at times, the ornate instrumentation feels more suffocating than immersive. The record demands patience, but whether it rewards that patience will vary by listener.

    Although it isn’t always consistent and is evidently a representation still the band finding their footing in many ways, Forever Howlong is undeniably special.
