and i hold your hand as i’m walking through that door
I have to admit, even with all of the incredible albums I’ve stumbled upon in the last three weeks, Future Islands still took me by surprise. The synth combined with the pop, all cobbled together with a bit of raw emotion that begs at a much deeper ocean just beneath the surface make for an absolutely wonderful album. Please listen to these, two of my favorite (but not my only favorite) songs off of their album In Evening Air, out May 4th on Thrill Jockey.
Future Islands – Walking Through That Door
Future Islands – Tin Man
