Write Your Own History is a compilation of B-sides and previously unreleased material by the Sunderland band Field Music.
The album was well received, receiving a 7/10 from The Guardian and praise from publications such as The Times.
The album opener, "You're Not Supposed To", was later released as a single with a video depicting the band performing in a Northern England pub as the patrons form a large conga line and some join in playing instruments with the band. The single features a typographical cover similar to that of the album, but with larger text displaying the lyrics to the song rather than information on the band's history.
