Description:

Future Islands, a band that captivates the world with its fast-moving, sweet-sour emo synth-pop sound and the one-of-a-kind, intense, dandyish singing style of vocalist Samuel T. Herring, has released its long-awaited latest album! The album includes the preceding single "For Sure," which has already been talked about as an anthem following "Seasons (Waiting On You)" and "Ran," the ballad "Thrill," which recalls the Tar River flowing through his native North Carolina, lyrical lyrics that evoke unsettling world conditions, and the harp-accompanied "For Sure," a song with a lyrical theme that evokes the oriental sound of strings and the sound of the harp. The album also includes "City's Face," a song that shows a glimpse of new musical evolution in the oriental sound of the harp and strings, and 11 other songs that are linked to the modern sounds of retro-wave and synth-wave, while bringing to fruition the fast pace and emotional rock band performance that the band has valued since its formation. The album also includes 11 tracks. The album also features guest appearances by Jen Wisner of Wye Oak, who has been featured on Bon Evere songs with Bruce Springsteen, and Katrina Ford (Celebration), an indispensable friend of Future Islands' work. Includes commentary and bilingual lyrics.
