Bobby Gillespie said in a press release, “I'm very excited about this album in a way that you would be about your first record. If there was a general theme to Come forward it can be a conflict, either internal or external. There is also a thread of compassion that runs through the album. The title is a Glaswegian term. If someone threatens to fight you, you say, “come forward!” It exudes the indomitable Glaswegian spirit, and the album itself shares that aggressive attitude and confidence. They have a word for it up there, French. Come forwardIt's also a pretty cheeky title.”
David Holmes produced the LP, and rejoined the band after 2013 More light. It is the band's first record since the death in 2022 of Martin Duffy, who had played on all records since Screamadelicabut left the band due to a rights dispute.
