added 18 March 2008 at 14.27

Fresh from the news that The Futureheads are set to do their thang at Glasto this summer comes word of a new album and UK tour.

Following their storming afternoon playing Live From Leicester Square, Sunderland's finest have announced details of their third album 'This Is Not The World' which will be available for our aural delectation on May 26.

Produced by former Killing Joke bassist and Verve knob-twiddler Youth, the album - which includes Xfm favourite 'The Beginning Of The Twist' - is preceded by a UK tour, no doubt warming them up for their headline Glasto slot.

The jaunt kicks off in Aberdeen on May 23 and includes a date at London's Electric Ballroom on May 29.

Tickets for the tour are on sale now from the Xfm Xchange on 0871 222 1049 or from the Xfm Online Ticket Shop here.
