Islands Announce New Album Tracklist, Tour

No band is an island, but that doesn't exclude the plural. Like the strength in numbers implied by their name, Islands will bring people together throughout North America on tour this spring and summer.

Nick Thorburn and co. are out on the road in support of the band's forthcoming sophomore album, Arm's Way, out May 20 in North America via Anti-. That album now has a tracklist, including a song called "Pieces of You". Unfortunately, that title has been used before.

The album also has a cover, pictured above.

Wow.
