Following packed European and US dates, including shows with the legendary Jesus Lizard, & And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, Cardiff's Future Of The Left return to the UK for a brief tour, with support from Tubelord, before leaving for Australia and New Zealand shows in December and January.
2009 has seen the band release their creatively exceptional and critically acclaimed Travels With Myself And Another around the world. Frontman/inhouse genius Andrew “Falco” Falkous also took time out of touring to stick his neck out on the whole file-sharing merry-go-round debate. His comments prompted Feargal Sharkey of the Undertones (and more recently, UK Music) to take out a full page ad in the Guardian reproducing Falco's original blog post, based on his reactions to the news that his bands album had been leaked and shared weeks in advance of release.
Travels With Myself And Another is the second album from Future Of The Left, following Curses. The band evolved from the seminal Mclusky who split in 2005.
