Future Islands / From A Hole In The Floor To The Fountain Of Youth (Blue/Apricot Vinyl)
Description
Future Islands are an emotionally charged synth pop group, known for their dexterous melodic touch, stately momentum and impassioned delivery. Over the past twenty years they have travelled a rare arc, from promising newcomers to bestkept secret, from cult favorites to heroes of the genre. As they reach this remarkable milestone, they resist the obvious move.
Instead of a ‘best-of’ compilation victory lap, Future Islands present From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth - an immediate and accessible collection – half of which have never appeared on streaming services – comprising alternate hits,
rarities, and fan favorites that showcases the band’s palette and bringing further color to their uniquely universal appeal. As the title suggests, this double-LP, traces the group’s journey from humble origins toward ever- widening horizons. Twenty songs for twenty years, four members of the band, four sides of vinyl.
There’s a well-known Tennessee Williams quote that talks of this kind of duration - “time is the longest distance between two places.” It is time that really separates the floor from the fountain. Future Islands have developed from a pulse quickening prospect into something more majestic and sustaining. What remains constant though is that romantic core, keeping perfect time with a melancholic pendulum, documenting those moments that vanish with fleeting beauty
