The Chaos by The Futureheads

Naïveté, energy, and a decided willingness to play with conventional song structures identify The Chaos as the sort of fireball usually deployed by a band ready to make its mark in a terribly crowded scene. What’s strange about this is that the Futureheads have had four albums with which to make their mark, the first of which was near-universally lauded as a fine debut even if its pièce de résistance was a cover tune. After spending two album s trying to reach the heights of that debut, it seems that starting over was perhaps the most prudent decision.
