Snowflake 02:59
All my time spent stuck in a seat for the long ride. I'm from the bottom of the heap and I still can't sleep when I look for the moon on the west side. Do you remember when the sun fell out of the sky? Do you remember the way the wind whipped through you that night? I'm from the bottom of the heap and I still can't sleep. I'm from the bottom of the heap so I got it in ink on Shotover Street. Do you remember when the sun fell out of the sky? Do you remember the way the wind whipped through you that night?

Anchorage 02:52
In the teeth of past judgment a tree sheds it's brown leaves. It's the fall and our fickleness retires at nothing. Your mouth, all it puts forth is a rough draft and your eyes betray your dirty little mind. You called it. You solved it. A problem for old friends who leave home and come back to find out what's different. Individuals without anchorage, stateless, rootless. Individuals without anchorage- let go.

Hoods Up 03:45
When you're driving home in your parents car with windows all down, rain is falling in, smoke just trails out. I know you've got Feel Good Lost turned up loud. if that's not apropos I don't know how you drive when you're high and it feels like your flying. When you go outside for your next cigarette, make sure your hood's up. Make sure you wear some gloves. And when you look back on your last night's mistakes you'll hear the wind shout. If that's not apropos I don't know how you learn from mistakes that make when you're blacked out. Make sure your hood's up (hoods up).

WADM 02:39
Anxious mouth don't feel too alive. There's lonely islands with rising tides from melting ice. Maybe I'm stuck inside tall tales and pine eyes. Well, God knows we all lie to pass the time. It's tough to find a better life. I won't stay down, don't waste your time.

Parked Cars 03:05
It hides out in backseats of parked cars in dark alleyways. What is it? What could it be?

"Future Reference, the follow-up to last year’s eponymous debut EP, is about as lush a fifteen minutes of brainy heart-sleeved indie rock to emerge this year." – NYU Local

"You feel like you just finished some intense sex—like the kind that leaves you dizzy and dazed after." – Draw Us Lines

"On Future Reference these guys are the real deal [...] This quartet may just be able to fill the void that Maps & Atlases have left with their release of Beware and Be Grateful." - Decoy Music
