THE FUTUREHEADS The Chaos (2010 UK 11-track vinyl LP - The Futureheads make their return with a bold new sound at a time of uncertainty and confusion for their country and beyond. As the public face collective decisions over their future with very little clarity or guidance, The Futureheads bravely promise renewed hope. Reacting to the confusion around them and tackling it head-on, 'The Chaos' refuses to compromise. If punk was all about DIY ethics, anti-authoritarian ideologies, and working with whatever is available and to hand, then The Futureheads are a punk band. Released through their own independent label, 'The Chaos' is the band's latest manifesto wrapped up in three-minute, heads-down, pop-informed songcraft. Featuring the single 'Heartbeat Song', the album is crammed with a slew of songs equally as direct and frenzied. Combining the band's trademark four-part harmonies with a harder-edged punk delivery, The Futureheads spit out assured melodies, with the wisdom of a band that have noticeably hardened since their inception in 2003. Their country needs leading. The Futureheads are ready to lead!)
