We all know your name is actually Funthony Suntano. Why would you lie to us
Absolutely agree the production on mix on most Future Islands albums has been messy. Vocals recessed, midrange incoherent. Works on a few tracks but smothers most. Why their live sound, matched with the performance, has always stomped all over their studio work. Great if they’ve finally made an album that doesn’t sound like someone fell on the mixing desk.
Man the fact that you shouted out 'Young Turks' is wild, I loved that song as a kid in the 80's and haven't heard it so long. I saw Future Islands last year with Weezer and I was very impressed by their live presence, haven't followed their album output much so I might have to go back then check out some of their other albums.
Some artists make similar albums and you pan them for this, future island makes the same album since 2008 and you love it lmao
I'm a death metal guy who used to go to a lot of live shows but Samuel from Future Islands was the most intense, vaguely frightening singer I ever met. That whole night was weird.
PLEASE do $crims new album Lonely boy it’s heat
you should review "Black Bear" by the Pine Neadles, really small band but I think they deserve some love
If the band was named The Lonely Future Islands you would have thrown it on the ground
Day 1 of asking Mr egg man to review DOA
REVIEW LONELY BOY
Is Antnee really the Internet's busiest music nerd anymore, because what about that dude with the Pepe the Frog avi who's reviewed like every single album on AOTY?
Thank you
Never heard it. Loved it. 6/10
This mf really just reviewed an album and called in an "album review" 😂😂😂
Did you catch the Norah Jones and Remi Wolf cover of Big Thief’s “Change”?
You can’t just call a speech on veganism an album review Anthony
I love their song Seasons
His lyrics are insanely underrated..FI def is a niche band but they fuckinkill it
YOU ARE ALL I NEEEED
This is a great musical start to the year
This record is amazing. AMAZING.
All their albums sound the same at this point. Wouldn't give this an 8.
production is good, but i can't stand the vocal so i didn't finish the album.
King of Sweden is one of the best singles of the decade.
