Future Islands – From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth
Twenty years deep and still hitting like a late-night epiphany, Future Islands return with From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth — a 20-track dive into rarities, alternate takes, and fan-loved deep cuts. Less a greatest hits, more a greatest feels, this one stitches together the band’s emotional DNA with two new tracks already in the wild. Arriving May 22, it’s not here to look back politely — it’s here to pull you right back in.
