SURFACE UNSIGNED FESTIVAL REVIEW
It takes a band with real self-assurance to attempt power-pop with the grandeur of U2, but it’s something Futuretown do with consummate ease. Hands to the heavens, choruses that demand 50,000 people are singing the words deliriously back, shimmering, dexterous guitar lines - we get the lot inside twenty minutes, and all with a conviction and craft that puts Futuretown in the same league as their world dominating partners in sound. Truly memorable stuff.
ULTIMATE-GUITAR.COM GIG REVIEW
The crowd was made up by two sections. These were, those who had come to see Sandi (Thom) and those there to see the support band (Futuretown). Futuretown play very melodic rock tracks. Their lead guitarist, using a Les Paul, is very good and most of the songs are based around his licks’.

SONG REVIEW
'SHINE ON'
Melodic guitars that make you sway with appreciation and a stunningly good voice as well. This is FutureTown whose demo’s title track Shine On is a perfect piece of Pop Rock in the vein of Crowded House. A blessing in a world full of screamo, I can imagine the video now as they drive round the Grand Canyon on a hot day with their hair flowing in the breeze. Guys when you make it big, as you surely will, I want royalties on that idea. Listen immediately.

As you may or may not be aware SoundARC hold a charity gig every year at Club 85 in Hitchin in aid of the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, and this year we are going to try something a little different from previous years.
This year we are going to take over the club and host 37 acts in one weekend putting full bands upstairs and acoustic acts downstairs in an event that we are calling ARCfest!
It all starts on Friday 4th December at 7pm and then continues on through Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th from 12pm-11pm
As well as raising money for the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, ARCfest will showcase all the different genres of bands that we at SoundARC have come across over the last 4 and a half years. Over this weekend a lot of the acts that you will see don’t get a chance to play a great local venue like Club 85, So as well as hearing new music you will see all manors of genres and styles from acoustic - Metal - Indie - Rock - Punk - Electro - Ska - Funk - Hip Hop/Rap - Alternative - Rhythm & Blues - Reggae - Grunge and loads more that I cant remember!
"blending low-level hip-hop beats with Scorn-esque bass and elonated guitar riffs to remarkable effect. . . it's that awesome. . . the music is superb, the artwork and packaging equally good. . . [it's] warped shuffling genius. 300% necro, foo'! (5/5)" (Zero Tolerance magazine).
Necro Deathmort's This Beat Is Necrotronic is released on Distraction Records on August 31st, but you can get your hands on it for FREE (on a 'if you like it, why not buy the CD?' basis) in all of its 320kps mp3 glory at distractionrecords.com!
