INFO: The Futureheads formed in 2000, in Sunderland. More specifically, in Barrys garage really. The line-up of the band at that point consisted of Jaff (Bass, Vocals), Barry Hyde (Guitar, Vocals), Ross Millard (Guitar, Vocals), and Peter Brewis, now of cerebral pop-masterpiece-makers, Field Music (Drums, Vocals).After playing a million and one hometown shows, and hopefully aggravating some of the vilest cleg-on bands Britpop could have to offer (on a local level only, obviously, because apparently therell always be a place for a Bluetones DJ set somewhere), the Futuremen took the show on the road. A massive helping hand from Slampt Records Milky Wimpshake sent them on a tour of squats and Youth Centres in Central Europe in summer 2001. Unfortuntaly this also necessitated a change in drummers Peter Brewis had ongoing commitments to other projects. In his place ambled a young pretender. Mr David Hyde (Drums, Vocals).
