Album Notes
Formed by members of two disbanded Welsh outfits-- noise-rockers McCluskey and electro-punks Jarcrew-Future of the Left picks up where both those bands left off. The band's debut, CURSES, is full of surging, nervous, and fractured post-punk tendencies, following a line back to genre icons like Pere Ubu and the Pixies.
With songs like "Real Men Hunt in Packs" and "Suddenly It's a Folk Song," it's clear that Future of the Left have a quirky, sometimes comic sensibility, but this is no cutesy indie band. Confrontation is the primary m.o., and at times (the ferocious "Plague of Onces"), the band verges into post-hardcore and screamo territory. They're quirky, no doubt, but it's the razor-sharp angles of the band's tunes and the jagged stab of their rhythms that makes CURSES immediately appealing.

Editorial Reviews
3.5 star out of 5 -- CURSES is so audaciously over the top you just have to laugh in delighted appreciation.
Spin

CMJ If they continue to shake up their formula in unexpected ways like this, these Welshman should have quite a future indeed.
