Future Islands is a power-pop group that eschews the guitar and replaces it with solid synth.
This song, from their 4th album Singles, was the consensus best single of 2014, and I totally get it. It's strong yet beautiful, forceful and emotional.
It's a great song.
Their debut television performance of the song in 2014 was on The Late Show With David Letterman, and let's be honest, I posted this song for THIS performance.
It's legendary.... if not for just the dancing, or Sam Herring's death metal growls.
But also, don't they have the look of a band that, well, any of us could be in? They're just normal guys.
