Anyone heard this yet? It's, uh, almost identical to McLusky, though a bit more complex (and there are keyboards/pianos in a few tracks). Not sure about it, I really dig some of the tracks, I love the super-fuzzy (and, uhm, Big-Muffy) bass and the silly guitar lines/pop hooks like McLusky had, but I dunno. Some of the songs are quite lame and it seems they go on too long. Still worth a listen. The first few listens, I was really into it, but now.. I dunno. I'd give it a 6.

didn't care for mclusky, but i haven't heard future of the left quite yet. some of my friends saw them at sxsw and said it was great, but their taste can be questionable.

I gave it just a couple listens, quite enjoyable but too many songs imo, gotta listen deeper to give a proper review on this, but it's a more than decent comeback. I loved McLusky and their sounds too, and I must say this is (soundwise) a really nice record too with some twists added.

I haven't checked them out yet, but I most certainly will. McLusky were one of my favorite bands.

excellent album... dunno if its as good or better or equal as mclusky..
its a different feel to it, its more pointy fingers than hand claps... its more lime zest than chilli flakes... |

In retrospect... I didn't really care for it, it had some good songs on it though.
Pretty boring. |

These guys are local to me...I'm not a big fan to be honest. A bit too macho for my liking. Maybe not them per se but certainly going to their shows there's a lot of fist pumping and posturing. Having said that, I enjoyed Qui a lot and that was similarly macho. The only song I like of theirs is Manchasm.

As it happens, a couple of friends of mine are making a video for FOTL at the moment. If anyone knows where to get a plastic camel from then that would be really useful, ta.
