Welsh rockers Future Of The Left have announced that they will release their new record 'The Plot Against Common Sense' on June 11th through Xtra Mile Recordings.
Constituting 49.8 minutes of singing, shouting, slinking, smashing and (at times) sobbing, the album is the best thing the band have put their name to in this or any other dimension, a fact which is not open to debate.
Recently expanded to a four-piece, initially as a bet, the band originally conceived the record as a Broadway musical based on the recent British phone-hacking scandal but were forced to abandon this idea due to budgetary restrictions.
From the upcoming summer of sport ('failed Olympic bid') to the creative bankruptcy of the movie industry ('Robocop 4 - Fuck Off Robocop'), urban outfitted riots ('City of Exploded Children') and the gigantic rumbling mediocrity of celebrity culture ('Notes on Achieving Orbit'), 'the plot against common sense' is a mostly very loud condemnation of many things, some of which are very easy targets indeed.
Recent single ‘Sheena is a T-Shirt Salesman’ is currently being blasted out across the airways played and championed by Radio 1’s Daniel P Carter, Huw Stephens as well as XFM, 6Music and Kerrang! Radio. They are also heading out on an eagerly anticipated headline tour across the UK and Europe. You can check their dates and details below and grab yourself tickets.
