It ║ │ │║ is a short instrumental beginning with a swathe ║ │ │║ of keyboards which are joined by some piercing ║ │ │║ guitar lines from Jim Kirkpatrick giving Joe ║ │ │║ Satriani a run for his money. The huge backing ║ │ │║ riff is the icing on the cake. æCold HeartedÆ ║ │ │║ begins with a lone vocal of ôShout it out, ║ │ │║ spread the word, stop this thing that we ║ │ │║ startedö highlighting the rich tone in Steve ║ │ │║ OverlandÆs voice, 1 of the original members of ║ │ │║ FM since their beginnings in 1984. A lazy guitar ║ │ │║ riff flows along side a jarring lead as the ║ │ │║ drums crash in thus beefing the song right up as ║ │ │║ a blistering but measured guitar solo cuts like ║ │ │║ a knife. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ æBad Thats Good In YouÆ is the highlight of the ║ │ │║ new songs and has radio airplay written all over ║ │ │║ it. The intro reminded me a bit of æWild Hearted ║ │ │║ SonÆ by The Cult and as the main riff kicks in ║ │ │║ it shows FMÆs penchant for penning songs full of ║ │ │║ melody and muscle. It has an instantly memorable ║ │ │║ chorus that will have you singing along to ║ │ │║ without fail. æPreying On Your MindÆ, the final ║ │ │║ new song adds another classic ballad to their ║ │ │║ repertoire with a haunting, heartfelt vocal with ║ │ │║ almost Spanish style guitar lines weaving around ║ │ │║ the prominent synths. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ So now to the live tracks which highlight the ║ │ │║ consistency of Steve OverlandÆs voice and the ║ │ │║ musical dexterity of the band. The guitar intro ║ │ │║ to opening track æTough LoveÆ has always brought ║ │ │║ to mind æUrgentÆ by Foreigner which is no bad ║ │ │║ thing. When the rest of FM crash in it shows ║ │ │║ their harder edge with Steve delivering a ║ │ │║ powerful vocal. The stabbing guitar riffs of ║ │ │║ æAll Or NothingÆ compliment the lush keyboards ║ │ │║ with a huge chorus highlighting the trademark ║ │ │║ strong backing vocals in FM. æCloser To HeavenÆ ║ │ │║ is a power ballad to end all power ballads ║ │ │║ driven by SteveÆs striding, soulful vocal with a ║ │ │║ piercing guitar solo midway. æCrosstown TrainÆ ║ │ │║ is uptempo AOR with chunky power chords ║ │ │║ preceding yet another huge memorable chorus. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ æStory Of My LifeÆ is a vocal tour de force with ║ │ │║ melodies that could melt the coldest of hearts. ║ │ │║ When they played this in Crewe last December the ║ │ │║ crowd was practically stunned to silence but the ║ │ │║ room erupted at the end of the song. An ║ │ │║ unforgettable moment! Final live track æBreathe ║ │ │║ FireÆ ends the live sement of Futurama with a ║ │ │║ guitar heavy slab of hard rock. Final EP track ║ │ │║ is an extended mix of 2nd track æCold HeartedÆ, ║ │ │║ a fine way to end a stunning collection of new ║ │ │║ and old songs. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ 2014 looks to be a busy year for FM. They have ║ │ │║ just toured with Europe and Foreigner followed ║ │ │║ by headline shows in Portugal, Spain, Holland ║ │ │║ and Germany in April and May. FM return to the ║ │ │║ live setting in the UK when they headline the ║ │ │║ Cambridge Rock Festival on Aug. 9th and with an ║ │ │║ extensive UK tour in November to celebrate ║ │ │║ their 40th anniversary! They should be some very ║ │ │║ emotional shows. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Steve Overland û Lead vocals/guitars. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Merv Goldsworthy û Bass guitar. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Pete Jupp û Drums. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Jem Davis û Keyboards. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Jim Kirkpatrick û Lead guitar. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │╔═════════════════════╗ │ │║ Release Tracklist ║ │ │╚═════════════════════╩══════════════════════════════════════════ │ │ │ │ 01 - Futurama [01:25] │ │ 02 - Cold Hearted [04:11] │ │ 03 - Bad That┤s Good In You [04:42] │ │ 04 - Preying On My Mind [05:35] │ │ 05 - Tough Love (Live) [05:32] │ │ 06 - All Or Nothing (Live) [04:14] │ │ 07 - Closer To Heaven (Live) [06:54] │ │ 08 - Crosstown rain (Live) [06:13] │ │ 09 - Story Of My Life (Live) [05:12] │ │ 10 - Breathe Fire (Live) [05:16] │ │ 11 - Cold Hearted (Extended Remix) [07:44] │ │ │ │ Total Length : [56:58 minn │ │ │ │ │ │ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ ╔═════════════════════╗ │ │ ║ Greetings To: ║ │ │ ╚═════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ Too all people who contributes to make this │ │ archive of good music in a exceptional conditions │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │■ ■│ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
