Everything was forever

"Some bands feel a need to reinvent themselves every once in a while, and for Sea Power, all it took was to lop the "British" off the first part of their name. Though the reason behind the change was a desire to separate themselves from a rising tide of toxic nationalism in Great Britain, the result seems to have also put a spring in their step ... Everything Was Forever is a powerfully effective summation of what they do best: making music that that's long on thunder and atmospherics, and built on a melodic foundation of widescreen grandeur. Everything Was Forever has all of that, and it also rocks ... Even when Sea Power settle into a midtempo number, this music is full of life and purpose, and as they contemplate living in a nation and a world where much is in chaos and little is what it once was, they summon a courage and vision that's eloquent".

"Everything Was Forever byder langt hen ad vejen på solide, stadionrockede produktioner, men Sea Powers ottende studiealbum tør for sjældent bevæge sig langt nok ud af sin komfortzone til, at det for alvor bliver spændende ... albummet [er] hverken banebrydende eller overrumplende, men lægger sig til gengæld godt til rette i velkendte pop/rockspor, uden at det bliver for forudsigeligt".

"More than two decades into its career, the band formerly known as British Sea Power sounds newly energized, eagerly plotting new routes to familiar emotional peaks".

"A deeply elegiac album made with the self-assurance of a group working at the height of their considerable powers".
