Like its predecessor Field Theory ("groundbreaking" - Dancing About Architecture), A Small Box Over a Global Goal showcases a breadth of focus and influence, ranging from erratic washes of noise ('Glass Top') to the shimmering pop arpeggiations of 'Gold Focus' and first single 'A Safe Space In Us', via slow-motion ambient drone ('On a Hillside') and skittering, undulating electronics on 'Jugemu'. Broads have shared stages with the likes of Mercury Rev, Plaid and JOYFULTALK, have been championed by BBC radio (particularly on Gideon Coe's 6Music show), and the two-piece have been commissioned to write two archive film live soundtracks for the British Film Industry. Field Theory received great reviews and airplay on over 150 radio stations across the globe. "I guess it's a bit more stripped down than Field Theory, more... pure" explains Ferguson. "We involved a lot of guests and collaborators on the previous record, but 'A Small Box Over a Global Goal' is just Mark and I bouncing stuff off each other, exploring ideas and honing in on a sound that defines Broads - for now, at least. One central theme of the album is mental health support and self-help, as Jennings explains: "I used writing 'Glacier' and 'Glass Top' to get me out of two bad episodes I had - they came from trying to visualise and confront the episodes whilst they were taking place and the images just came with sounds. Although Broads' sound palette has developed considerably over 6 years, the band's unifying principles of repetition, incremental build, careful texturing and layered melody have remained constant. A Small Box Over a Global Goal is their most electronic-focussed offering to date, but it retains the analogue, human feel that has gained admirers across the UK and beyond.
