Future of the Left (led by former Mclusky singer Andy Falkous) excels tight rhythms and expansive choruses. Intelligence, gallows humor, and fury abound in their lyrics and the band is not afraid to insert the occasional synth line into their otherwise old-skool punk arrangements, indicating a musical adventurousness only hinted at in their previous band. Professional Reviews: Spin (p.84) - "[They] spit fiery, trebly guitar-rock venom....Witness 'Hope That House Built,' whose menacing chug and cheeky lyrics simultaneously tickle and pierce."
