I've got a small list of covers I'm thinking of doing, but also experimenting with an acoustic sound - this past month or so has been super busy at work & with our social calendar, so have had no time to do anything! UGH!

Future Islands have readied their seventh studio album, People Who Aren’t There Anymore. The full project arrives January 26th, while new single “The Tower” is out now.
The follow-up to 2020’s As Long as You Are, People Who Aren’t There Anymore was produced by Future Islands alongside Steve Wright, while Wright mixed the project with Chris Coady. It arrives on CD, cassette, standard black vinyl, transparent vinyl, and yellow and black “yolk” vinyl that features alternative artwork. Pre-orders are ongoing.
New track “The Tower” begins with almost understated synths before building to the type of shimmering chorus Future Islands are known for. “Threw a bottle across the water/ To someone who’s thinking of me,” Samuel Herring sings. In its brooding music video, directed by Johnathan Van Tulleken, he does just that, as he and bandmates William Cashion, Gerrit Welmers, and Michael Lowry walk across a deserted beach. Watch the clip below.
In addition to “The Tower,” People Who Aren’t There Anymore features Future Islands’ August comeback single “Deep in the Night.” Below the jump, check out the record’s artwork and complete tracklist.

don't get hung up on the words - "indie" became a genre of it's own, much like "college rock" left college. The early 2000s were a boon for indie artists, and some hit it pretty big. It was peak mp3 blog years (I ran one myself). Not all bands were technically indie, but the music from the era launched what became known as the "indie music" genre.
It's language. Meanings aren't always literal. Hell, "literally" doesn't mean literally anymore!
my thinking was a classic, Flaming Lips, Yoshimi - but I'm down for whatever!
Go for it!!! Yeah, my bandwidth has been tight this past month with travel and work! So sorry!
So excited for this!!!
Love RAA!
Every week I add the top 10 songs to the playlist - it's comprehensive of this community and will only keep growing. You can just play it on shuffle and have hours of alternative music!
Haha! Me too normally, but these last few weeks have needed lots more team collabo work. Haven’t had the bandwidth for new music lately. Woof.
I really need to dive into some of the songs on this list. I feel so behind! Work been crazy!
looking forward to giving it a spin later!
oops!!! had a busy morning and didn't get to it! Will delete mine.
This album is simply a masterpiece. Perfect from the first note to the end to me. I liked Mitski before, but this new one. Oh my, she dug deep here. It's subtle, it's not, it's bold, it's quiet... but it's gutwrenching. Love it!
so happy for new RAA!
