The Futureheads release single, tour, stick it to The Man

The Futureheads release single, tour, stick it to The Man

Free of the label that decided to "dump" them two years ago, The Futureheads have released their new single in the UK and are politely asking fans to stick it to The Man by purchasing said single.

Their plea seems to be working. The new song, "The Beginning of a Twist," clings to the bottom rung of the UK Top 20 Chart. The band's forthcoming album, This Is Not the World, is scheduled to parachute into the States in May. We're glad to hear that that "sometime in 2008" release date is resolved.
