I love Future Islands, another great album from them!

They play their past strengths in new directions here, making a super solid album. It takes a few runs to appreciate the richness of textures the tunes have, with the risk of sounding a little samey at first listen.r(4.3)

Their cultivated formula is too affable to abhor but routine enough to pester. Genuinely great groovage, ceaselessly creamy bass lines, invincible synths; yet oft so mechanical and mundane. That same ol back-beat every dang time is beyond conspicuous, firework choruses seem fashioned for festival fodder, word-wise they're drab as ever and vox-wise there's a real lack of remarkability; even with a frontman like Sam Herring. Certainly no lack of full-band synth-pop solidity, though. And when Debbie Harry herself comes through for the surprise near-end duet, it's something like a then-meets-now new wave miracle.

I really like this band but they just keep doing the same thing to diminishing returns

No love for 'Ancient Water', it's among my favorites of the album, and 'Day Glow Fire', sounds very euphoric while driving...then again so does most of the songs on this record.
