Kind of bummed out by how much the new song sounds like "Seasons".

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Herring is too big a talent for Future Islands. He needs more interesting music behind him.

All their songs kind of sound the same, but I like that song.

Their pre-Singles sound was definitely different. But I like their Singles sound better.

Saw them last night. If they come near you, go see them. Sam Herring is one of the best performers I've ever seen. He fucking means it. The passion and sincerity are visceral - he just smears his guts all over the stage, and he never lets up for one moment during the whole set. He's magnetic.

I always smile to myself when thinking of his Letterman performance - gotta love that straight up passion and joy. Never ceases to make me happy.
