to move up and down
Our album ‘Obstacles’ is OUT NOW!
Available worldwide from all the usual digital platforms as well as Sink & Stove’s Digital Store.
“The ten tracks start out with a vox ‘n’ glocks innocence, but quickly head into darker realms, somehow marrying post-rock with a girly Elastica nonchalance. ‘Obstacles’ hides behind nothing. With an ‘In Rainbows’ bare-faced simplicity it ticks over with confidence, distortion in the back pocket for some really notable lifts.” Fear Of Fiction
“Led by thumping bass hooks, chafing guitar figures and some Debbie Harry-worshipping insouciance, glam-y, knife-edged post-punkers Island Audio set out their throbbing disco-grind stall simultaneously referencing New Order, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Blondie, with ethereal flights into shoe-gazing territory. Very promising.” Venue
“Ten tracks of carefully arranged, shoegaze-tinged indie pop that shows a lot of promise from the band.” Drowned In Sound
