The Futureheads formed in 2000 in Sunderland, UK or more specifically, in Barry\\\'s garage. The line-up of the band at that point was Jaff (Bass, Vocals), Barry Hyde (Guitar, Vocals), Ross Millard (Guitar, Vocals), and Peter Brewis (Drums, Vocals), now of cerebral pop-masterpiece-makers Field Music. After playing countless hometown shows, the Futureheads took the show on the road with a massive helping hand from Slampt Records\\\' Milky Wimpshake. A tour of Squats and Youth Centres in Central Europe came in summer 2001, due to which the band switched out drummers.
