Baltimore’s Future Islands have shared a brand-new song, ‘Glimpse’, today. Recorded during the People Who Aren’t There Anymore sessions, ‘Glimpse’ focuses on a family home burning down and coming to terms with the physical and emotional losses and with the erasure of a collective history.
‘Glimpse’ was mixed by Chris Coady and Steve Wright and produced by Future Islands with Steve Wright. Its cover art is by BEEDALLO, art direction and design by Nolen Strals, continuing a visual partnership from People Who Aren’t There Anymore. Jayla Smith created the accompanying animated video which can be viewed below.
Earlier this year, the four-piece released their seventh studio album People Who Aren’t There Anymore (4AD). It heralded a new chapter for Future Islands, who continue to challenge themselves and each other despite having formed nearly two decades ago. Where they’ve pursued ever-higher energy anthems in the past, they’ve turned inward this time and unlocked a new level of ferocity. Critically acclaimed, it scored the band their first ever Top 10 album in the UK.
Future Islands return to the road later this month, hitting North America starting with two sold-out shows in Vancouver and wrapping up in New Orleans. For tickets and further information, head HERE.
