From News and Tributes (2006). News and Tributes is the second full-length album by the Futureheads, released on 29 May 2006. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cut through a Vox AC30 C2, the nearest rig we use for The Futureheads' other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the single pickup.
