Forest Swords – Bolted (Translucent Algae Green) Vinyl LP

Bolted, released on October 20, 2023 via Ninja Tune, marks Forest Swords’ return with his first full-length album in six years. Written between personal upheaval and physical recovery, the record blends post-dub, experimental electronic production and shadowy ambient textures shaped by distorted samples, heavy percussion and atmospheric synth work. Its fractured, cinematic sound palette and emotional density make Bolted one of Matthew Barnes’ most immersive and evocative releases.
