Phorward is a studio album by the Scottish band The Shamen. It was released in 1989 on Moksha Records. It was billed as a "mini album" because the original vinyl release had only six tracks.

On the CD version, DJ Eddie Richards remixed tracks including "You Me and Everything", "Reraptyouare", "Splash 2", and "Phorward", further expanding the musical impact the mini-album made on the acid house scene. It was reissued with slightly different tracks in 1999 on the Essential label.

The front cover image is a monochrome, heavily rasterized excerpt of the cover image on In Gorbachev We Trust.

Track 3 ends in an infinite loop.

Some copies of the 10" came with a white label 7".

The German version of Phorward was released on regular 12" vinyl, and appends these two tracks as the last track on each side, respectively.

The 1989 CD issue contained three extra tracks (from the "You Me & Everything" single) not found on the vinyl or the 1999 reissue.

Digitally remastered, with new liner notes.
