“It could have gone either way… I figured that if this was going to be my last hurrah, we should really go for it and make something that would be astonishing to listen to”: How Big Big Train broke through with The Underfall Yard

Big Big Train.

In 2009 Big Big Train released an album that would finally bring them to the attention of a wider audience. The Underfall Yard was their first release to feature drummer Nick D'Virgilio and late singer David Longdon. In 2021, marking a slightly late 10th anniversary reissue, Longdon, D‘Virgilio and Greg Spawton looked back on the project that almost broke them.
