Future of the left

My intention for this blog is mainly to discuss things to do with freelancing, web design and web usability, but I’m fast starting to realise that it’s going to contain a fair bit of music news and other waffle too…

Now this is a big statement I know, seeing as it’s only January, but I think Future Of The Left just might be my band of 2008. Made up of ex-Mclusky and Jarcrew members, their debut album ‘Curses’ was released in September but I’ve only just discovered it and my what a pleasant find!

I won’t bother writing much else about them since my sentiments are pretty much in line with whats written about them over at the undomondo and BBC Wales websites, but needless to say I think the album is brilliant and is going to sit quite comfortably amongst the Pixies, Fugazi and Jetplane landing ones already on my shelf.

At last a band that have restored my faith in music.
