Future Islands, who may be one of the best live bands on the planet, are getting ready to hit the road again. They’re touring the UK next month, which will be followed by a North American tour and a series of rescheduled European dates. And last night, following their recent standalone single “Peach,” they went on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert to debut another brand new song, “King Of Sweden.” Over a classic Future Islands groove, frontman Samuel T. Herring rasps, “I met the King of Sweden/ When I was walking in the headlights/ Drowning in a bender/ Frozen at a red light.” Listen below.

Well, this was probably inevitable. Last month, a handful of Stereogum staff went to SPIN’s big day party in Austin, which had both Future and Future Islands on the bill, and all of us made doofy jokes about how they should get onstage together. That didn’t happen, but Chicago masher-uppers the Hood Internet have now [...]
