Future Of The Left. Future of the Left. Future of the Left is an alternative rock group based in Cardiff, Wales. History[edit] Beginnings[edit] Future of the Left formed in mid-2005 after the bands Mclusky and Jarcrew both split up within two months of each other at the beginning of the year. The new group was formed by singer/guitarist Andy "Falco" Falkous and drummer Jack Egglestone, both previously of Mclusky, alongside singer/bassist Kelson Mathias and bassist Hywel Evans, both formerly of Jarcrew.[1] Evans quickly moved on to start a math rock band, Truckers of Husk.
First performances[edit] In late 2006 the trio was signed to Too Pure, who had also signed Mclusky,[2] and when Too Pure disbanded the band transferred to 4AD. Singles[edit] The band released their debut single, the double A-side "Fingers Become Thumbs/The Lord Hates A Coward" (along with B-side The Fibre Provider) on 7" vinyl on 29 January 2007 in extremely limited quantities. Debut album[edit] Travels With Myself and Another[edit] Personnel changes[edit] Mclusky. Mclusky (often stylized as mclusky), originally known as Best, were a three-piece post-hardcore group formed in Cardiff, Wales.
The group consisted of Englishman Andrew "Falco" Falkous (vocals, guitar) from Newcastle Upon Tyne,[1] Jonathan Chapple (bass, vocals) and Jack Egglestone (drums), who replaced previous drummer Matthew Harding in late 2003. History[edit] According to the band, they originally formed in 1996 when Falkous and Harding met at the Blackwood Miners Institute, a venue in their home town from which they were both ejected for dressing as miners. The pair met Chapple a short time afterwards at the Reading Festival when they caught him urinating on their tent late in the night. More realistically it has been suggested that Falkous and Harding met when working together at Anglian Windows, a small double-glazing call centre in Cardiff.
Best signed to London label Seriously Groovy and released their official debut record, the 3-track single "Huwuno".
