Nothing will highlight how many bangers a band truly has, the depth of their earworm collection that have nested in your brain just waiting for a burst of a banger to get wiggling again. Futureheads are one of those bands that have a bag of singles that just haven't quit since their early 00s release. Their sharp post punk guitars with tight North Eastern harmonies always positioned them as a cut above their peers.
Also, their cover of 'Hounds of Love' is so good the original has never sounded the same.
• The first time all The Futureheads’ singles have been brought together in one newly mastered release.
• The package also contains new sleevenotes and unseen photographs and is available in CD and 2LP formats.
Formed in Sunderland in 2000, The Futureheads spearheaded the UK’s post-punk revival with angular guitars, unconventional song structures and intricate four-part vocal harmonies.
The band’s debut album ‘The Futureheads’ (2004), which included their iconic cover of Kate Bush's ‘Hounds of Love’ (NME Single of the Year 2005), reached number 11 in the UK charts. Praise in 2006 was followed by extensive world touring and further albums; ‘This Is Not The World’ (2008), ‘The Chaos’ (2010) and a cappella album ‘Rant’ (2012) all on their own label, Nul Records.
After a hiatus, The Futureheads returned in 2019 with ‘Powers’ cementing their reputation as a band of joyous vitality.
