Today Forever is an EP by British rock band Ride, released in March 1991. The EP debuted at No.14 and No.1 on the Indie Chart in the UK.[2]

The first three songs also appeared in the US on the “Vapour Trail” CD-single. All four songs from the EP were added to the Nowhere album as bonus tracks on its re-release in 2001, 20th anniversary reissue in 2011, and 25th anniversary reissue in 2015.

In November 2022, all four songs were made available on ‘4EPs’, a compilation of Ride’s first four EPs made available together for the first time and packaged as one gatefold album on white vinyl and in CD format.

In 1991, a video album was released to accompany the EP, featuring a music video for each song directed by James Deegan. The release was also made available in Japan on Laserdisc as part of a box set with the band’s Brixton live video. This version was a compilation of all of the band’s music videos up to that point.
