Ran is great. North Star is great. If they carry on in this groove for the next album they'll lose me but for now I'm quite happy to float around in their little weird world

it's got some great cuts like 'Time On Her Side,' 'Ran,' and 'Ancient Water,' but then there are clunkers like 'Shadows,' which is kind of cringe-y (imo)...

"Future Islands sound like Robert Palmer struggling to untie a raincoat". David Quantick on Twitter

It's a good joke if you're one of the lamer British people on this board or Alfred Lord Sotosyn.

I'm quite enjoying Samuel Herring's debut of his hip hop side project as Hemlock Ernst with Kenny Segal.
