1.	Stranger 04:22	lyrics	buy track
This place is getting stranger Time is making love shy I know I shouldn’t have tried Our souls are sitting in a chamber Waiting to realize There's time to make things right We should be dancing To poetry It should compel you To sing Instead the voices Argue with me And shout inconsolably So let's go dancing Above the sea Where we can witness Relief I’ll take my chances So endlessly I’ll take them for you and me This place is getting stranger Shame’s replacing our pride You're sure but you can’t decide We should be dancing To poetry It should compel you To sing Instead the voices Argue with me And shout inconsolably So let's go dancing Above the sea Where we can witness Relief I’ll take my chances So endlessly I’ll take them for you and me
2.	Landscape 03:18	lyrics	buy track
Even though I can see my fate Spread across the cold, dark earth Oh there is something growing ‘neath the gates And it’s ignorant of worth Placate the landscape Don’t mean to frustrate I’m meant to be alive You’re on your own till you find There is life on the other side Too much It’s all I needed It’s all I needed now It’s been too much It’s all I needed The plant’s been seeded now Broken space complicates my take On the thoughts that I once called love There is a reason we pretend that we fought To say we did enough It looks like you forgot to Save me from myself But there's no substitute For love from someone else Too much It’s all I needed It’s all I needed now It’s been too much It’s all I needed The plant’s been seeded now Too much It’s all I needed It’s all I needed now It’s been too much It’s all I needed The plant’s been seeded now
3.	Caught Me By Surprise 04:22	lyrics	buy track
I wrote this song To realize That I have made no sacrifice So I sit here And apologize For what I’m about to try I just can’t understand How I got this feeling Got this feeling now No it wasn’t the plan But I’ve got this feeling Got this feeling now You caught me by surprise You caught me by surprise I wrote this song And realized I need to make things Right this time So can you hear Me through all these cries I owe you for my life I just don’t understand How I got this feeling Got this feeling now Don’t deserve where I stand But I’ve got this feeling Got this feeling now And after all these years I still believe You caught me by surprise And after all these years I still believe You caught me by surprise
4.	Suddenly 03:35	lyrics	buy track
I can’t decide How to live my life Should I break my stride And settle down Cold summer nights Make me realize That there's not much time To wait it out I don’t know you And you don’t know me But here we both are So suddenly I don’t know you And you don’t know me But here we both are So suddenly I've got more faith Than I did last time But I'm still not strong In my beliefs I didn’t realize I spent this much time Girl I've got to get Going Suddenly Suddenly Suddenly I don’t know you And you don’t know me But here we both are So suddenly I don’t know you And you don’t know me But here we both are So suddenly I don’t know you And you don’t know me But here we both are So suddenly I don’t know you And you don’t know me But here we both are So suddenly
5.	All the Same 03:18	lyrics	buy track
I shouldn’t choose To play your games Once more I lose All the same And I’ve come to realize how I tell the truth You haven’t changed Love breaks the tame And you hold the cane But I swear it’s true I know it’s all the same I saw you today Heartbreak on your face Won’t someone remind me Don't ever come back While my heart’s still intact I'll hide till you find me I followed you Into the depths The basement wreaked Of old cigarettes And I warned you girl That we are all the same Tell me the truth One last time Did you feel my heart And ignore my cry You’ve got to know that It hurts me all the same I don’t know Cause I got you on my mind Yeah I got you on my mind I saw you today Heartbreak on your face Won’t someone remind me Don't ever come back While my heart’s still intact I'll hide till you find me
6.	Out Loud 04:02	lyrics	buy track
I broke down just to hear myself the Other day I spelled your name with all my fingers In the sand Not this time The distractions won’t prevent my own hope Not this time I've got to do this all alone Your spirit’s screaming out loud There's nothing we can do now Ill pretend to hear you out But there's something I need to tell you about I don’t want anybody else to Call your name But I've got to separate I can’t just Hold a flame I don’t mind But there seems to be a time and a place I don’t mind But you’ve got to comprehend just in case Your spirit’s screaming out loud There's nothing we can do now Ill pretend to hear you out But there's something I need to tell you about
7.	Take Me There 04:49	lyrics	buy track
I want to talk about it I want to air it all out So tell me all about it And baby we'll figure it out I want to hear the silence I want to hear that lovely sound So I can think about it And finally make both of us proud On a roller coaster I can see the palm trees brown Wind is blowing through me now No need to be around You needed me to wonder How this all played out I pictured something different I thought it would work somehow So can you take me there Can you take me there Take me there I need to see it I need to breath it So won’t you take me there Won’t you just take me there Take me there I can’t believe it Until I feel it now I want to talk about it I want to air it all out So tell me all about it And baby we'll figure it out I want to hear the silence I want to hear that lovely sound So I can think about it And finally make both of us proud So can you take me there Can you take me there Take me there I need to see it I need to breath it So won’t you take me there Won’t you just take me there Take me there I can’t believe it Until I feel it now
8.	Hurry Home 03:32	lyrics	buy track
I’ve been dreaming of Your face at night Those eyes and smile Oh your touch is all I think about when I am all alone So just sit right there Ill hurry myself Back home My patience has been running dry When I can’t recall what you feel like So I’ll try and make the best of this goodbye I just miss the shadow of your smile
9.	I Never Knew 03:37	lyrics	buy track
I've made the trip to my memories At least a thousand times I've never felt such a feeling Of personal design Carving out the likely future It feels like I need to restart Don’t remember what it means to Love without veins in my heart I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely Until I met you My breath’s on the ceiling My heart’s on the floor So why bother healing If I’ll break once more Bless this timely fixation Without it I think I’d be lost Take me out of rotation I’ll speak the truth At all cost I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely Until I met you I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely Until I met you I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely I never knew I was lonely Until I met you
10.	Tear You Down 04:08	lyrics	buy track
Who told you everything was fine You don’t have to worry Life will just unwind Complacent hearts kill open minds Can’t understand the picture Might as well be blind Hold on to everything you dream You don’t control your future You're busted at the seams Don’t push me Don’t push me down I am not as quiet as I really seem I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down Tear you down I wanna tear you down You know we’ve already been here before So give me your ears and your eyes I don’t want to see you down here “cause every time I do I die I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down Tear you down I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down I wanna tear you down Tear you down I wanna tear you down
11.	Incomplete 03:40	lyrics	buy track
I was never the type But what if I Could be your savoir I want to save you I've been wrong, I've been right On these blurry nights I need you to save me I need you to save me too When we went home Some how this was not A place I’d been before When you opened the door There’s no words that I could ever use To explain my want for more You won’t believe how long I've been searching So it’s nice to finally meet It feels like I am still just a virgin You have made me incomplete

about

Landscape is the follow up to Future Generations’ 2016 eponymous debut. Produced by Justin Gerrish (Vampire Weekend, Hamilton Leithauser), Landscape is the first release from the band to feature their full lineup of Eddie Gore (vocals) Mike Sansevere (synthesizer, guitar, percussion), Eric Grossman (guitar), Devon Sheridan (bass), and Dylan Wells (percussion). Of the album’s title, Gore notes it “came from ending the first significant relationship of my life. And with the band’s move to Brooklyn, we were all put into this world we’d never experienced—living on our own and navigating the landscape of being in New York City.”

In advance of Landscape’s release, Future Generations will be touring the East Coast and Midwest. The dates are listed below with more to be confirmed.

As a trio, Future Generations created an EP that included their breakthrough single “Stars” which helped land them a deal with Frenchkiss Records before they had even finished school. With the addition of Sheridan (whom Gore invited to join the band while waiting in line at a school dance) and Wells (a lucky Craigslist find), Future Generations now feels complete. Throughout Landscape the 5-piece build their pop-minded songcraft with bursts of free-form experimentation. And while the album’s abundance of hooky melodies makes each song immediately catchy, they unfold with an intricacy of detail that reveals more nuance and depth with every new listen. Today’s single exemplifies this chemistry as it builds a brilliant tension between its nostalgia-soaked synth lines and lyrics that perfectly channel a pre-breakup disillusionment.

Above all, Future Generations are unified by a passion for endless discovery in every element of the artistic process. “Making this album was the most creative time we’d ever experienced together,” says Gore. “I remember after the ninth day of recording, we were all walking to the subway together to go home, and we just stopped and looked at each other like, ‘This is crazy, what’s happening here.’ It was this euphoric experience’” In reflecting on their chosen name, Gore points to the band’s mission of transmitting that energy to others. “We’re all very optimistic people, who are really grateful to get to do what we love together,” he says. “Our hope is for future generations to also have that—to get to do what they love, and be with who they love. It’s a little idealistic, but I think that encapsulates the whole spirit of the band.”
