"Not What It Used To Be' video



FOTH were a multi-limbed entity birthed from the inner recesses of Sheffield city centre where they spent their time bogged down in strange and pointless vendettas. Their sound could best have been described as perpendicular, their personages as arsey and their physiognomies as foul.



They did this;

* Fables (January 2006)

* Farewell Comrade (September 2006)

* Not What It Used To Be (April 2007)



Album

* You Took A Scythe Home (May 2007)



Sessions

* Marc Riley (Rocket Science BBC 6 Music, June 2006)

* Steve Lamcq (In New Music We Trust, BBC Radio 1 May 2007)

LIVE REVIEWS



.Not that you should ever expect anything less from Fury Of The Headteachers. In these parts, at least, they've established a reputation as a stellar live act, one whose frenzied double-vocal, twin-guitar assault can strip paint from a wall at 50 metres. The recording of debut album You Took A Scythe Home sounds consciously lo-fi but put them in a room like the smaller of The Leadmill's two and the result is an explosively noisy post-punk cocktail; like At The Drive-In trying and failing to play it straight or ¡Forward Russia! with everything double tracked. - Drowned in Sound



'ALL hail!' - Marc Riley



'Where were you?' - Steve Lamacq
