SEA POWER – EVERYTHING WAS FOREVER

British sextet Sea Power had eight releases as British Sea Power. The band changed their name in summer 2021 due to “a rise in a certain kind of nationalism in this world – an isolationist, antagonistic nationalism that [they] don’t want to run any risk of being confused with.”
