Following on from ‘Ran’, Future Islands return with their signature bass-lead synth rhythm on ‘Cave’ the latest song from their album The Far Field, April 7th on 4AD.
Look, this SHOULd be getting old by now, as there’s very clearly a formula at work here, yet through the genuine emotion and uplifting tune just melts all that away.
The video features sign language interpretation from Jonathan Lamberton.
