Hailing from Philadelphia and Wilmington, Delaware, THE FUTURE UNWRITTEN have been rocking between both cities since 2006. Put Out This Fire is their debut full-length on their own Relay Records imprint, coming a few years after their first EP Extended Play. The band is influenced by classics such as The Who, The Clash and The Kinks, which is evidenced by their soulful sounding rock and roll on their new album. But despite such influences, the trio still manages to step out of the box and play a number of styles. For example, “Attachment” is a blitzing, punk-infected anthem, dominated by melodic guitar squeals and aggressive hooks. It blows open with a splitting guitar solo, followed by a reggae-tinged breakdown for a jammy final minute. Despite the changes in momentum they never loosen their tight grip – find out by listening below.
