Future Islands PRE-ORDER: – From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth (Limited Edition Blue + Apricot Vinyl 2xLP)

RELEASE DATE: MAY 22, 2026

Future Islands are an emotionally charged synth pop group, known for their dexterous melodic touch, stately momentum and impassioned delivery. Over the past twenty years they have travelled a rare arc, from promising newcomers to best-kept secret, from cult favourites to heroes of the genre. As they reach this remarkable milestone, they resist the obvious move. Instead of a ‘best-of’ compilation victory lap, Future Islands present From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth - an immediate and accessible collection – half of which has never appeared on streaming services – comprising alternate hits, rarities, and fan favourites that showcase the band’s palette and bring further colour to their uniquely universal appeal.

As the title suggests, this double-LP traces the group’s journey from humble origins toward ever-widening horizons. Twenty songs for twenty years, four members of the band, four sides of vinyl. There’s a well-known Tennessee Williams quote that talks of this kind of duration - “time is the longest distance between two places.” From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth arrives on a Limited-Edition Blue and Apricot Double-LP
