SXSW 2009 Session Recap – Future Of The Left

fotl1
We had an incredibly diverse group of bands come through EAR studios during our week in Austin for SXSW 2009, but when it comes down to sheer intensity, none of them can match Future Of The Left. The band made up of Andy Falkous, Kelson Mathias and Jack Egglestone (two parts former Mclusky, one part former Jarcrew) were our final act of a great week in the studio, and they made for a memorable finish.

Even though the high octane, punch to the gut style is not something you hear on the WOXY airwaves alot, our listeners really took to the Future Of The Left debut album, Curses in 2007, and we felt really fortunate to have the band not only play a couple songs from that record, but also three brand new songs from their upcoming sophomore album, Travels With Myself And Another, which is due out at the end of June.

And so, at the end of a long week of music for us and the band, they stepped up big time and played one of our favorite sets of the weekend. Enjoy the ear shattering sounds of Future Of The Left.
