El primer disco de la formación de Baltimore Future Islands en el sello 4AD, producido por Chris Coady.
El trío formado por Gerrit Welmers (teclado/programación), William Cashion (bajo/guitarra eléctrica y acúsica) y Samuel T. Herring (letras y voz) y formado en 2006 publica su cuarto disco en nuevo sello. Singles (4ad) ya ha sido calificado por numerosos medios como uno de los mejores discos de synthpop de 2014: «Pasado el sobresalto inicial de la extravagancia, encontrarás en su entrega un grito del alma desde los mismos frentes de la vida, capaz de evocar tanto la tragedia desesperada como la alegría desenfrenada a la vez…» (New Musical Express).
Trusted, repeated
Candor, uneven – in it’s the will to find
The right design
The form belongs, to no one
Holding truth
Come see me through
Come through the sea
To share
And bare
The light inside of you
Don’t cast away, don’t cast away
Don’t let them cast a role for you
Find the sun, force the moon
Loose the earth
For dreams come to those who let them in their guarded room
Open wide your winged-eye
Spirit drives – to catch the truth
For spirit thrives where darkness comes to challenge you
Be more than words
Be more than strength and kind
Be love and blind
To those who come to you
Sing something new
Belief is wet and ghost
Yet, loves the most of what we do
Don’t cast away, don’t cast away
Don’t let them cast a role for you
Find the sun, force the moon
Loose the earth
For dreams come to those who let them in their guarded room
Open wide your winged-eye
Spirit drives – to catch the truth
For spirit thrives where darkness comes to challenge you
Those winter days
Those winter nights
Those days and those nights
Come see me through
Come through the sea
To bare
And share
The light inside of you
Don’t cast away, don’t cast away
Don’t let them cast a role for you
Find the sun, force the moon
Loose the earth
For dreams come to those who let them in their guarded room
Open wide your winged-eye
Spirit drives – to catch the truth
For spirit thrives where darkness comes to challenge you
Challenge you, challenge you
Challenge You
