This Is Not A Song
Islands Lyrics
If penny, away i will lost everything
In many circle ways i already don't have anything
I hate to watch you ooh
Make it if you ever learn it never shows
This is not a sound
So why do i find it so hard to move home
Is a crime to be crying for this long
In other atmosphere my head come lose
I hate to watch you go ooh
And if you ever learn it never show
If this is just a song
Then why do i find it's so hard to move on
Is a crime to be crying for this long

Hailing from Montreal, Canada, Islands is a 6 piece band founded in 2005 by The Unicorns co-founder/songwriter Nick Thorburn (often performing as "Nick Diamonds") and drummer J'Aime Tambeur. Following the untimely disbandment of The Unicorns as they teetered on the brink of breaking through, Islands' debut release entitled Return to the Sea, with its quirky sounds and refreshing, catchy melodies includes collaborations with members of Arcade Fire and Wolf Parade. This debut picks up where The Unicorns left off and takes the music to new heights without departing from The Unicorns' unique if sometimes peculiar appeal.
Islands plays beautiful pop melodies, intertwined with elements of afro-pop, hip hop, and indie rock, among others. One of the main gimmicks of the band is the recorder brought over from The Unicorns, which is prominently featured in the song "Jogging Gorgeous Summer." Nick Diamonds rules over the band with an iron fist. Other members include: Patrice Agbokou, Aaron Harris, Alex Chow, Sebastian Chow, and Patrick Gregoire. Return To the Sea, their rookie effort, was released on April 4th, 2006 on the brand new label, Equator Records, and Rough Trade in the UK. Digital Distribution handled by Alpha Pup.
On May 20, 2008, Islands released its second album, Arm's Way, on Anti- Records.
On September 22, 2009 Islands released their third full length album, Vapours.
On February 14, 2012 Islands released their fourth full length album, A Sleep & A Forgetting.
On September 17, 2013 Islands released their fifth full length album, Ski Mask
On May 13, 2016 Islands released their sixth and seventh full length albums, Should I Remain Here, At Sea? and Taste.

Let's hope Nick puts out another gem like we know he can.

You'd complete me if you would release this song in early autumn.
Brenna Pritchard
Yes, this does sound like Slow Dancing in a Burning Room, but it takes on its own sound after the intro AND I love it anyway. Still one of my favorite bands.
Savannah Saldana

literally just discovered their album yesterday and I must say, I'm very impressed. Some of the most laid back and soulful music I've heard to date.

I think it's a good direction... Islands, coming back to earth a little - and they're doing it with grace. This is lovely.
