Future Islands – Glimpse
Future Islands – Glimpse (2024)
Directed by: Jayla Smith
Glimpse, released in September 2024, is a haunting and reflective single by Future Islands. Recorded during the sessions for their seventh album *People Who Aren’t There Anymore*, the song delves into themes of personal loss and collective memory, centering around a family home burning down. Its emotive lyrics, paired with the band’s signature synth-driven sound, offer a poignant exploration of coming to terms with physical and emotional erasure. The animated music video, directed by Jayla Smith, complements these themes with striking imagery.
