»The story of “Seasons” is the story of Future Islands alone — it has no obvious peer, is part of no larger movement, and speaks to nothing of significance culturally or historically. It is, however, the year’s most enjoyable song, and rather obviously and comfortably so: a synth-pop gem with an instantly familiar hook, an anchoring bassline worthy of New Order, and some of the best vocal histrionics since the days of Marc Almond, courtesy of inimitable frontman Samuel L.

Okay song - but damn! that's some of the most absolutely atrocious dancing I've seen in awhile. It's Carleton-level shit but done not really ironically or ol ayfully but just with a sincerity which pushes the cringyness to unbearable levels. _________________ -Ryan
