As Long As You Are: Petrol Blue Vinyl LP

On October 9, the Baltimore band Future Islands will release their sixth studio album, As Long As You Are, via 4AD. This album looks both to the past and the future, facing old memories and embracing new hope. It's all about trust, filled with honesty, redemption, and 'letting go'. It helps old wounds heal and ends painful chapters. As Long As You Are also marks a new era for the band. Drummer Mike Lowry becomes a full - fledged member and songwriter, joining the founding trio of William Cashion, Samuel T. Herring, and Gerrit Welmers. For the first time, the four - piece took on official production duties, co - producing the album with engineer Steve Wright at his Wrightway Studios in Baltimore. Their new wave synth - pop, with bright melodies and heavenly choruses, brings the same euphoric and joyous feeling as their 14 - year career highlights.

To use this vinyl LP, simply place it on a record player. Make sure the record player is clean and in good working condition. When you're done listening, gently lift the needle and put the record back in its sleeve. To keep it in good shape, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid touching the playing surface with your fingers to prevent fingerprints and scratches. If the record gets dirty, you can use a record cleaning brush to gently remove dust. And that's all you need to know to enjoy this great album for a long time!
