Futureheads

Just moments ahead of the release of The Futureheads' second album News and Tributes comes catchy and upbeat single Skip to the End.

It has the same funky post-punk style that has become so associated with the Futureheads. Once again the single borrows the best of The Clash with a poppier chorus. This is yet another example of the easily familiar sound the band have carved out for themselves and is as full of distinctive riff lines, tambourine-and-hand-claps accompanying the key change as you could wish for.

Dead simple, but well written enough to stick in your head without getting annoying.
