News and Tributes is the second full length album by The Futureheads, released on May 29, 2006. The first single "Skip to the End" was released on May 15, 2006. The album, like their debut, received critical acclaim, and praise that The Futureheads had 'matured' their sound.
With this album The Futureheads garnered comparisons to Blur, and particularly the album Modern Life Is Rubbish. It was produced by Ben Hiller, who has also produced for Blur and Depeche Mode. Singer/lyricist/guitarist Barry Hyde has revealed recently that second single "Worry About It Later" concerns "...modern attitudes towards casual sex".
The song 'News and Tributes' is dedicated to the victims of the Munich Air Disaster, when a plane with many Manchester United players on board crashed in Munich in 1958.
The album leaked onto the Internet on April 27, 2006.
