When the songs of Future Islands once seemed like invitations to scenes from someone else's life. Then the album “People Who Aren't There Anymore”, released in January 2024, presents the entire captivating saga - transforming pain into hope and marking a triumph in the band's career.

Here, excitement, devastation, understanding and the first rays of redemption converge in 44 minutes - an album that finally captures the full force of Future Islands on tape. Future Islands' song “Seasons (Waiting On You)” was released in 2014 and is the opening track from their fourth studio album Singles. The song received critical acclaim and was named best song of the year by several publications including Pitchfork, NME and Spin. It was also listed in the best of the 2010s lists, such as #34 on Pitchfork's “200 Best Songs of the 2010s” and #94 on Rolling Stone's “100 Best Songs of the 2010s.” A particularly notable live performance of the song took place on the Late Show with David Letterman on March 3, 2014. Frontman Samuel T. Herring impressed with his intense stage presence, which included expressive dance moves and powerful vocals. This performance went viral and contributed significantly to the band's popularity.
