No Man is an Island

‘Don’t Call Me Whitney, Bobby’. How can you not love an album with song titles such as that? Of course, it’s unfair to judge a piece of work simply on the humour of a single name. But when it comes to The Island’s album Return to the Sea, perhaps there is no better way of explaining its atmosphere. The record is just that fun. Unlike most “fun” albums, the effort loses nothing in terms of musicality while establishing the mood. The aforementioned track is an excellent example of the tone maintained throughout the record. Other standouts include ‘Rough Gem’, ‘Jogging Gorgeous Summer’, and ‘Volcanoes’.
