Sunderland rockers The Futureheads are on form, it would seem - 'The Beginning Of The Twist' is a pithy slice of northern post-punk at its best.
I was prepared for yet another bland guitar-led 3-minute exercise in mundanity - but I was to be surprised with a sharply produced pop song that holds an edge without being inaccessible.
This is the first single from the album 'This Is Not The World' - and if the rest of it is anything like The Beginning, it should be worth checking out.
What next?More by The Futureheads? More reviews? More post-punk, or indie, or rock?
