Baltimore’s excellent Future Islands will be re-releasing their In Evening Air through Thrill Jockey on May 4th. “Tin Man,” the next single off the album, now has a beautiful music video shot in home town, Atlantic Beach, North Carolina. All of the shots of beach houses, greasy foods and illegal in-door fireworks almost make you forget that “Tin Man” is a sullen and lachrymose song. It does, however, remind me of a another song. Download the “Tin Man” MP3 and watch the video below:

Don’t forget about “In The Fall” and “Little Dreamer” with Beach House’s Victoria Legrand.
