2009’s A Brief History of Love introduced the world to the punk-influenced pop of London band The Big Pink. Listening to that album it was clear the English duo had a great affection for shoegaze and industrial bands, and even the short-lived big-beat movement of the mid-to-late ’90s.
Future This feels like a natural extension, and first single Stay Gold could almost be mistaken for a sequel to their well-known Dominoes track.
Elsewhere Give it Up and Future This offer a more restrained counterpoint, with their emphasis on intricate, syncopated beats.

the most OVER-rated band going around! OK granted their first album had some pretty nice moments ; thought it was promising but then I saw them live and I thought, what's all the fuss? they can't play live if you ask me:) dullsville /just a bit rubbish. Heard this and thought, 'no, even worse'... all the things I actually liked about the first album don't seem to be there; disappointed.
