 Future Of The Left announce further UK dates in support of their critically acclaimed album Travels With Myself And Another, which is the band's last album for 4AD. The band are going into the studio in February to start work on their next album. Andy Falkous says "Travels was, after a difficult gestation period, an album that we are inordinately proud of. Before the process of starting each record I always say I want to write a pop album and then our personalities get in the way. This time I'm hoping to take the thing full circle and to channel the spirit of Freddie Mercury (nb. not Brian May) through Slayer's backline." UK Tour:
