For many years, Baltimore’s Future Islands have been one of the hardest-touring bands in the whole indie rock universe. (Probably not coincidentally, they’re also one of the best live bands.) Last year, when the pandemic made touring impossible, Future Islands released the album As Long As You Are. Since then, they’ve stayed busy by releasing more music: a Tina Turner cover, a Colourbox cover, an Egyptian Lover remix. Now, while they’re preparing to finally return to touring life, Future Islands have come out with a new standalone single.

Ever since Nick Thorburn brought back Islands circa COVID, the band has been mighty prolific. They’ve thus far released two albums this decade, 2021’s Islomania and 2023’s And That’s Why Dolphins Lost Their Legs. Now, they’re already back with their third in a three-year span.

Last month, Death Valley Girls, the Los Angeles band who make awesomely psychedelic garage rock, released their album Islands In The Sky. It fucking rules. Today, the band has followed that LP with a new single, and it’s got a bit of a wild backstory.
