This Is Not The World

VINYL FORMAT. This Is Not The World, it could be said, is an amalgamation of the last two Futureheads albums -it has the excitement, urgency and vigour of The Futureheads with the added control, sincerity and maturity employed on News & Tributes. It's the album they always intended to make.

Recorded over three weeks in Spain last summer, legendary producer Youth (Primal Scream, The Verve) clipped the Mackem lads' overflowing pot of songs into shape. Out of it came twelve short, sharp shocks of pure Futurehead joy, not sismissing the killer hooks and choruses that adorn each eand every one. A change of scenery clearly served them well.
