Futureheads reveal new LP, UK tour

The Futureheads have announced that their fourth LP will be called The Chaos.

The follow-up to 2008's This Is Not The World is released through the self-founded Nul Records on April 26 and the band kick off a UK tour in Norwich on the same day.

Guitarist Ross Millard told NME of the album's themes: "There's been a real s**tstorm to deal with as far as the country's concerned."

However, he added that despite taking in subjects including the ongoing war in Afghanistan and the economic crisis, the record is also "massively positive".
