A key figure in the Windmill Scene, Wood's style was primarily spoken word,[4] however he distinctly fluctuated between alternative forms of delivery such as half-sung passages and anguished outbursts.[5] Wood's lyricism and performance for Black Country, New Road was praised and celebrated prominently.[6][7] Black Country, New Road's early successes were influenced by Wood's performance and lyricism, however, when questioned if Black Country, New Road was "Isaac's Band", Wood denied traditional ownership.[8]
Four days before the release of their sophomore album Ants from Up There, Isaac Wood departed Black Country, New Road citing mental health concerns.[9] Subsequently the band cancelled their planned tour and clarified that they would not perform any music released prior to his departure.[2]
