Everything Was Forever
''Everything Was Forever'' is a studio album by British indie rock band Sea Power, released on February 18, 2022, on the band's own Golden Chariot label. It was the band's first album in five years, and the first since changing their name from British Sea Power. The songs "Two Fingers" and "Folly" were released as singles.
