ISLAND is an alternative rock band based in London, their single ‘Just That Time of the Night’ is a dreamy reflective track that explores feelings of sorrow and regret.
I vividly remember hearing ‘A Place You Like’ by ISLAND late one night on the radio, I was immediately drawn to the soothing guitar melodies and contrasting raspy vocals. When you listen to their music, it's hard not to become enveloped in feelings of nostalgia.
"I know my place in this is fading
Far too long, far too long I thought the world was changing
Far too long, far too long I spent my young days ageing"
Their single ‘Just That Time of the Night’ is an excellent example of their ability to combine soothing instrumentals with sentimental lyrics that feel intimate and relatable. The drums lull the listener into the song, whilst the guitar melodies soar in the chorus painting a nocturnal image that echoes the title of the song. If you like songs that evoke a feeling of escapism, then I would strongly recommend checking out ISLAND and their debut album ‘Feels Like Air’. I look forward to hearing new music from them soon!
