A key figure in the Windmill Scene, Wood's style was primarily spoken word, however he distinctly fluctuated between alternative forms of delivery such as half-sung passages and anguished outbursts. Wood's lyricism and performance for Black Country, New Road was praised and celebrated prominently. 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.

Four days before the release of their sophomore album Ants from Up There, Isaac Wood departed Black Country, New Road citing mental health concerns. Subsequently the band cancelled their planned tour and clarified that they would not perform any music released prior to his departure.
