The Name Black Country Communion Is Derived From The Term Black Country Referring To The West Midlands Area Of England Where Hughes And Bonham Were Brought Up. The Group's Sound Is Intentionally Reminiscent Of Popular Classic Rock Groups Of The 1970s Reflecting The Previous Work Of Frontman Hughes As Well As The Link Between Bonham And His Father John's Band Led Zeppelin.

It’s The First Album To Be Released Since The Band’s Breakup In 2013. Recorded In Malibu California With Producer Kevin Shirley Released On September 22 2017. BCC IV Expanded The Combination Of Blues Rock Bonamassa’s Solo Work And Hard Rock Hughes’ Previous Work With Deep Purple And Black Sabbath And Bonham’s Link With Led Zeppelin That Took Place On The First Three Albums. It’s A High Quality Hard Rock Album That Brings A Great Feeling That Classic Rock Is Alive And In Good Hands. Recorded In Only Seven Days The Band Was Careful Enough Not To Repeat The Previous Albums. BCC IV Sounds Bolder With Heavy Riffs Undeniable Hooks Melodic Flair And Infectious Choruses. Kevin Shirley’s Importance Is Huge By Guiding The Band Into The Right Directions For The Album’s Best Interest And The Result Is Spectacular.
