简介

“In an unexpected treat, Future History started their set not from the stage but scattered among the crowd…percussion was recorded and played on a loop to create a kaleidoscope of sound.” – pressplus1.com (NXNE 2011) In the short time since the Feb 2010 release of their debut EP, “Self-Titled.” Future History have made quite the impact on the independent music scene in Canada. Now on the eve of releasing their third record entitled “Lungs”, the band has amassed a long list of accomplishments, including: Showcases with 102.1 The Edge, supporting slot on the 2011 Marcy Playground tour, multiple showcases at CMF and NXNE, Top record of 2012 honours, multiple nods at the Toronto Independent Music Awards and many more. Comprised of Kevin Ker, Justin Dillon, Chris Dawe, Mike Baggley and Mike Costa.. The music of Future History has been described as psychedelic love noise, experimental alt-rock, an evolved shoegazing, both haunting and poetic. Deeply metaphorical lyrics are simultaneously accessible yet beyond immediate comprehension. 2012 proved to be an intense and rewarding year for the band. Having spent 8 months recording and crafting their second record at Chalet Studios in Claremont, Montreal, random forests, basements, and stranded during a hurricane in New York City. The band employed the use of over 50 instruments, devices and household objects, combined with a 35 person vocal, stomp and drum circle and the heartrending cry of a lonely whale. The record features a slue of guest appearances; including Todd Clark (Pilot Speed), Jonathan Dauphinais (Beast) and Kevin Pullen (The Dunes). The result was an anamorphic journey of a record: Loss:/self was released in early April 2012 to a sold-out Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto. “Loss:/self” has been adored by press and fans alike, generating well over 100 reviews from around the world. The album yielded “Best Live Band” and “Best Singer-Songwriter” nominations at the 2012 TIMA’s (Toronto Independent Music Awards) and beat out Metric and Bruce Springsteen, securing “Record of the Year” on Open ’til Midnight (http://otmblog.com/2012/12/13/top-12-albums-of-2012-part-two/) The dawn of 2013 marked a new beginning. Future History wanted to follow Loss:/self with some form of resolution and immediately began making plans for their third record. Finding a hermitage in an old, decrepit and haunted cabin in the backwoods of Ontario, assembling a myriad of old recording equipment acquired over the years and utilizing old furniture discovered in the cabin, Kevin Ker personally spent 6 months in solitude writing the record. Summoning, discovering, creating and capturing. The result is a haunting 8 song trip that echoes and responds to the questions asked in Loss:/self. When asked what Future History fans can expect of the new record and intense experimental approach to the creative process, Kevin Ker replied; “You know that moment? The moment when everything fits exactly into place like a child’s shape sorting box….only this time, in this particular moment..the square fits through the circle hole and the star applies the effect of quantum tunnelling”
