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. The album will be released on 22 May 2026 and today the band share two songs, ‘Sail’ and ‘Find Love’.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAs 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. Future Islands have always been more than a viral moment; their career contains extraordinary depth and nuance, often overshadowed by louder peaks. These songs reveal a band comfortable with subtlety, grace, and emotional endurance - and they have never sounded more eternal.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe songs were first gathered into a playlist by bass lynchpin William Cashion, who also chose the title - “I’ve always loved the imagery of that lyric,” he makes clear, “the hole in the floor is the everyday, but the fountain is the magic that happens when the life you dreamed about actually becomes the one you’re living. It’s the dream and the reality existing in the same room.” A well-known Tennessee Williams quote talks of this kind of duration - “time is the longest distance between two places.” It is time that really separates the floor from the fountain.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYes, Future Islands can wow and dazzle, but this release is about something else, something understated and more profound. “This is for everyone who has carried these songs with them, from the first house parties to the rooms we’re playing today,” explains Cashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Future Islands\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e 4AD\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_usa\"\u003eUSA\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp; \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_canada\"\u003eCanada\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/alternative-rock\"\u003eAlternative Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/synth-pop\"\u003eSynth-Pop\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e1 The Ink Well\u003cbr\u003e2 Pinnochio\u003cbr\u003e3 The Happiness Of Being Twice\u003cbr\u003e4 In The Fall\u003cbr\u003e5 Awake And Dreaming\u003cbr\u003e6 Virgo Distracts\u003cbr\u003e7 Find Love\u003cbr\u003e8 Cotton Flower\u003cbr\u003e9 The Fountain\u003cbr\u003e10 Tomorrow\u003cbr\u003e11 One Day\u003cbr\u003e12 The Chase\u003cbr\u003e13 Calliope\u003cbr\u003e14 Six Weeks\u003cbr\u003e15 Haunted By You\u003cbr\u003e16 Sail\u003cbr\u003e17 As Long As You Are\u003cbr\u003e18 Days\u003cbr\u003e19 Rager (Demo)\u003cbr\u003e20 Glimpse\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"4AD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43749244141633,"sku":"6338455","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/Future_Islands_-_From_A_Hole_In_The_Floor_To_A_Fountain_Of_Youth__MEwiQgu.jpg?v=1775631612","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/future-islands-from-a-hole-in-the-floor-to-a-fountain-of-youth-blue-apricot-vinyl-359940","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
