Futures Islands Singles 2014 FLAC

Herring has an energy, a physical aura, that moves along a single line. On one end is a hangdog character with tucked-in shirt and pleated khakis and on the other is an ursine man-monster wresting primordial sounds from his heart. Until recently, we could find Herring only in the small clubs where Future Islands relentlessly toured. With Herring as ringleader, these shows got pretty rowdy for a three-piece synth pop band. He had that kind of uninhibited spirit the internet loves to. And now, following the storied live shows, the memes, and their move from Thrill Jockey to 4AD comes their fourth and possibly best album, Singles. Singles is a great balance of pop and melodrama. Its themes are also symmetrical, as Herring plays with antithesis like an eager English student: day and night, sun and moon, summer and winter, man and woman. His words are the sort of thing that would tumble out of your mouth if you were told to write a love poem right now in eight seconds. But on Singles, Cashion and the band nod toward the stadium-ready anthems of early U2. The moody synth drones have been replaced with ergonomic melody and the band has tightened up accordingly. He sings with his eyes open, still searching, still trying to reconcile love, and still a little pissed off. But Future Islands compensate for the occasional dull patch. If this all seems a bit much, well, it is. Singles is risky, but the strength of the songwriting carries it over. It reminds me of that video from Sasquatch 2009 of the , which has since gone mega viral. Herring acts on impulse—at no point does he sound calculated or clever—offering an open invitation to the uninhibited, to the goofy, and the sentimental.

In early 2009, the band toured Europe for the first time. We were able to take time off the road because of the money we had saved from years of touring, so were glad to write while not under the pressure of being in between tours.

From that sin on, we'd get together in chunks — we'd go to our rehearsal space in Baltimore, or over to Gerrit's place or to my home studio.
