"Heartbeat Song" fired the starting gun for The Chaos, the Futureheads' fourth album, going out as its first single in April 2010 on Nul Records: a wiry, hook-first rush that BBC Radio 1 had already put on its A-list that March. It entered the UK Singles Chart at 34, which turned out to be as high as it climbed, but the UK Indie Chart gave it a warmer welcome, taking it straight in at number one for a fortnight.

Record Store Day got its own treat, a signed, hand-stamped seven-inch limited to 500 copies. Time Out New York's Noah Tarnow reached for the biggest superlative he could find in a Volume blog post.
