Future Islands side project The Snails share Christmas song

Future Islands members Samuel T. Herring and William Cashion have been in another band called The Snails since 2008, alongside members of Wing Dam, Nuclear Power Pants & more.

Herring and co. are set to release a new album ‘Songs From The Shoebox’, and it’s being led by a Christmas track called ‘Snails Christmas (I Want A New Shell)’. The slightly tongue-in-cheek song comes with Bandcamp tags “punk”, “reggae” and “saxophone,” so it’s a real rollercoaster ride.

The track follows 2013 album ‘Worth The Wait’. Since then, Future Islands have gone stratospheric, but they’re still finding time for the project.
