Battalions announce new album ‘Forever Marching Backwards’

BATTALIONS have announced a new album!

The new album, titled Forever Marching Backwards, follows hot on the heels of last year’s Moonburn and is scheduled to be released in November this year!

The upcoming record was recorded and mixed by Chris Fielding at Skyhammer Studios and speaking about the record, vocalist Phil Wilkinson says, “if you’ve followed BATTALIONS for the last few albums you can expect tighter production, bigger riffs, more of a focus on structure and song writing along with the usual self-depreciating humour peppered throughout. The album itself is based around lead single Forever Marching Backwards from which the album takes its name, essentially an allegory about how society seems to be hardwired to follow blindly without the majority questioning motives. The blind leading the blind.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first single from the record; the title-track Forever Marching Backwards.
