Islands, "No Milk, No Sugar"
Nicholas Thorburn, of the lamented Unicorns and whose City of Quartz (as Nick Diamonds; Jesus, guy, pick a brand and sit on it) was one of 2015’s best records, has two new albums out with his Google-unfriendly band Islands. I am normally averse to double-album syndrome, especially when it presents as a Lucky Town/Whatever The Other Record That Wasn’t Called Lucky Town Was symptom, but I listened to both of them over the weekend and they are definitely very good. I guess one is more electronic and one is more “natural”? Whatever, here are tracks from both, enjoy.
