Just listened to My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains by Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band whic Sam mentions, and it was certainly the inspiration for Future Islands North Star.
I had to go on a Morphine rabbit hole after Samuel mentioned them and managed to find them performing Cure for Pain on Jools Holland in 1994/5. What a great performance it was, i recommend it to anyone reading this.
The newest album is one of the best of all time of any album. I haven’t found a long number of songs album in years that I can listen to every song from start to end. More than once.
Humble guy seen future islands 3 times now amazing band love all the past Art lord and snails bands stuff too as well as Sam's hip hop Hemlock Ernst times
There's something unbelievably charming about Samuel.
Absolutely

Future Islands, one of my favourite bands. Sam is very charismatic in addition to being so talented. A great interview.
