“Decent Days and Nights”
from the album The Futureheads
2004
[iTunes]
The Futureheads is a four-member rock band from Sunderland, England. They amaze with their vocal prowess, blending their four voices over around and between the choppy retro guitars and chunky bass lines. They don’t just have one vocalist — everyone sings.
The band began as a trio of Barry Hyde (vocals and guitar), Jaff (bass), and Pete Brewis (drums). They first performed in 2000, and through word-of-mouth their reputation in the local area grew. Ross Millard (vocals and guitar) and Hyde’s younger brother Dave (replacing Brewis on drums) joined later, and their first single was released in 2002.
The Futureheads released their self-titled debut album in September 2004. Their music has been described as energetic, witty, and cheerful in style. The band recently toured the USA in support of Franz Ferdinand, and they return stateside this summer.
