Big Big Train announce new album ‘The Likes Of Us’

BIG BIG TRAIN have announced a new album!

Titled The Likes Of Us, the upcoming album from the English progressive rock band is the follow-up to last year’s Welcome To The Planet, and is scheduled to be released in March next year, via InsideOut Music.

In May 2023, six members of BIG BIG TRAIN left their homes in England (bassist Gregory Spawton, guitarist Dave Foster and violinist Clare Lindley), the United States (drummer Nick D’Virgilio), Sweden (guitarist/keyboardist Rikard Sjöblom) and Norway (keyboardist Oskar Holldorff) to gather for a week in lead vocalist Alberto Bravin’s home town of Trieste in north eastern Italy. They convened at Urban Recording, a studio recommended by Alberto, to lay down the basic tracks for the band’s new studio album.

Speaking about the upcoming new album, the band says, “we are delighted to announce the release of The Likes Of Us. After the events of the last few years, this is a particularly important album for us, both as a band and individually. We’re very proud of the new songs, which we recorded principally in a studio in Italy. Working together in one room brought additional inspiration, real energy and a clear sense of purpose. We’re thrilled with the results.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Oblivion.
