And the story is complete. Well, sort of. Ninja Tune has been a label of many labels for many people, depending on where they're listening from, for some time now, but with Ants From Up There it's journey from imprint grounded in relatively specialised forms of sound to just an all-round music institution is finally done.
Black Country New Road make music that's a million miles from the techno that shouts so loud from the Ninja roster right now. Nor are they comparable to the platform's downbeat, hip hop, nu-soul, and electronica roots. Instead, this is truly commanding, powerhouse indie rock 'n' roll that's likely to find favour with fans of everyone from Pixies to Arctic Monkeys, Arcade Fire to The Clash. Proof, if it were needed, that in 2022, and for some years already, all-over-the-place output isn't just fine, it really works.
