| The Futureheads / 679. The Official Statement |
|
| 23 Nov, 2006 |
The Futureheads are no longer signed 679 / Warner Music as of October this year. The agreement was reached amicably after many open discussions involving their future with the label.
679 singed The Futureheads in 2003 and released their eponymous, quarter of a million selling debut album in 2004. News & Tributes followed in May this year and the band have spent large amounts of time on the road in America as well as playing at many European festivals since it's release.
Of the departure, singer Barry Hyde said
‘Recently we have parted company with our label here in the UK and most, but not all, of the world. We are pleased with what has happened. This means that we can now do our next album with refreshed enthusiasm, we're not worried about the situation and we are not even going to consider splitting up. This year has been really challenging for us, we've faced some heavy shit but we are through it now. It's a shame, but some things have to come to an end and we'll get over it'
The band have been writing and recording in their hometown Sunderland in recent weeks are all very excited about what 2007 may have in store. |
