The Daily Choice: Future Islands - Tin Man

If their was a rift in time and a deserted island from the 1980s slowly and simply floated in to it. Somehow, the lead singer of Frightened Rabbit and the slightly cracked future lead singer of, well, Future Islands also (perhaps they were on a cruise ship for wailing indie musicians) ended up on this island. In a moment of passion (tiny bottles of vodka from a washed mini-bar) love was made, and in this rift of time and space, a wee little child was made, and it sounded just like this.
One part high school steel drum band, one part lovelorn keen, one part synth-powered Eighties. And you know what? It’s almost amazing.
