When Futureheads played Fuji in 2005, they seemed like just another in the bunch of Brit-revival Red Marquee/Green Stage bands that come every year, marketing a new album in prep for a fall tour. Such bands (ie Kaiser Chiefs, The Rifles among others) get by on buzz to usually bring in crowds who have never seen them but often already know all the words. Savvy. They owed much to The Jam, they had a fine pedigree -- saved from the street by a ''Detached Youth Program'' -- but for all that they were hard to like for the music. The attitude was there, sure, but ...

With their second album ''News and Tributes'' and their latest, ''This is Not the World,'' the music has caught up. ''Broke up the Time'' in particular does a fine job of throwing in some Clash with that Jam. Need some anger, need some energy, need some rock? Try the big platform of the White Stage on Sunday. There ain't no roof out there.
