Future of the Left

Written on January 31, 2010 by Dave in Music

fotl Future of the Left Today we’re going with a band that is a little outside the realm of what we might normally write about. Future of the Left author a brand of angular prog-punk that is hard to ignore. The trio from Wales have something to say about the state of the world, and make no qualms with sharing opinions in their lyrics. The vocals are delivered with an aggressive snarl set to clamorous guitars, interesting keyboards, and impressive bass lines and drums that are altogether nothing short of catchy as hell. Play it loud.

Future Of The Left – Throwing Bricks At Trains (mp3)

Future Of The Left – I Am Civil Service (mp3)

Both songs from Travels With Myself And Another

Rogue Wave – Good Morning (The Future)

tym-pan-o-gram (noun)
an examination used to test the condition of the middle ear and mobility of the eardrum, and the conduction bones by creating variations of air pressure in the ear canal.

Basically, it sounded like a cool name for a blog intended to be primarily about music. We’d both had other blogs previously, but over beers it was decided that more damage could be done as a joint venture. And here we are.

We share a passion for the undiscovered and under-appreciated, and hope that you’ll be able to find something you love as well.

About the Author: Dave
I like music. I can't describe how I came to like the music I do, because I don't know how or why, I just do.

Many years ago, Napoleon's brother, my great-great-great-great-great-great Grandfather, came to America. He was asked his name on Ellis Island while being processed as an immigrant. Not understanding English, he was under the impression that he was being asked how he had arrived in the new land. So he turned around and pointed at the sea vessel and said, 'LaBarge.'

I come by my music taste of my own free will. My friends listened to 2Pac, my parents to contemporary Christian and me? Sunny Day Real Estate. I can’t explain it.
