First World Fever

Year Future are a Los Angeles quartet with two prior GSL releases and First World Fever is their debut full-length. The band is comprised of GSL founder Sonny Kay (vocals; ex-Angel Hair, The VSS), guitarist Rockey Crane (ex-Dead and Gone), and the newly revamped rhythm section of Pete Lyman (bass) and Chris Hathwell (drums; also a member of Palm Pictures artists Moving Units). The 11-song album was recording in Los Angeles in autumn 2005, shortly before the band embarked on their second European tour (supporting The Locust), which included a slot at the Mars Volta-curated All Tomorrow's Parties festival in the UK. Comparable to the likes of Black Flag, Yes, Bauhaus, Dead Kennedys and Blood Brothers, Year Future's sound has evolved considerably since the early releases and show no signs of standing still.
