      Yes, ditto on all that! In fact when I first heard the song, I thought it was "The Call". Very NW and 80's ish.
      I had never heard of, or any music by "Future Islands". On Apr 16th when the game came out, I became a fan!

    Perish the pain
    I was impoverished
    Those ties that wind
    And stared into open lanes
    Stared into long long nights
    Howling and still
    West of the Eastern Cove
    Carving the wind
    Dawn of your eyes
    Dust off your smile
    When you say "Us"
    You make me trust
    I will never keep you from an open door
    I know, you know
    That's how much I feel in everything you are
    You know, I know
    Hot as the day
    When we sat on stones
    Watching the fish, run
    Under our feet, and flow
    And dove from the rocks
    Scraping my knees and toes
    And blood, with me, rose
    Slow from the sea
    And you were waiting for me
    Waiting for me
    Waiting for me
    Waiting for me
    You were waiting for me
    It's just how much
    When you say "Us"
    You don't know just how much
    You make me trust
    I will never keep you from an open door
    I know, you know
    That's how much I feel in everything you are
    I know, I know
    I will never keep you from an open door
    I know, you know
    I will never keep you from just who you are
    I know, I know
