Tom Minor’s back with “Future Is an F Word,” and it’s a track that’s freaking serious. Released in the wake of 2024, the hottest year on record, this London-based indie artist delivers a potent mix of personal lament and sharp political commentary, with a track that takes all the best bits of indie rock, new wave, and punk, threw in a sprinkle of soul, and created this absolute banger that’ll never be forgotten in your head.
And get this — it’s produced by Teaboy Palmer. Yeah, that Teaboy Palmer. The guy they call the Brian Wilson of West Hampstead. He’s worked his magic again, making everything sound crunchy and punchy. The guitars are in your face, the drums hit hard, and that bassline? It’s so jazzyyou’ll be grooving along before you know it.
But here’s where it gets really interesting. Minor’s lyrics are like a puzzle you can’t stop trying to solve. One minute you think he’s singing about a messy breakup, the next it feels like he’s yelling at the world about climate change. It’s brilliant because it lets you decide what it means to you. Is it a breakup song? A protest anthem? Both? That’s the beauty of it – it’s whatever you want it to be.
Tom Minor, formerly known as Tom Miner has been plugging away at his music for years. He started off writing tunes for other folks, but now he’s stepped up to the mic with his own brand of indie rock that’ll make you think. His first album, “Eleven Easy Pieces on Anger & Disappointment,” has been turning heads, and this new single? It’s just more proof that Tom’s here to stay in the indie world. His sound is all over the place – in a good way. One minute you’re vibing to some psychedelic riffs, the next you’re nodding along to garage rock beats.
Look, times are weird right now. Everyone’s feeling a bit lost. That’s where “Future Is an F Word” comes in. It’s like a punch in the arm and a hug at the same time. Yeah, tomorrow looks kinda scary, but Tom Minor’s reminding us that we can still make noise, create cool stuff, and flip off the universe if we need to.
