Montreal’s Islands visited Club Lambi last night with a packed show to warm up for their UK tour. The band is getting ready to release their second record in May under a new label, a change that frontman Nick Thorburn says he “could not be happier about!” They switched their formerly all-white color scheme for an all black look and sounded far more polished then their previous show during Pop Montreal at the Just For Laughs studios. They played a cover of Sinead O’Connor’s Red Football and a whole lot of new songs that were as good as promised and definitely worth the wait. The very mysterious “Islands Revue” opening act consisted of a hip hop flavoured song by drummer Aaron Harris and the Chow “Brothers” new side project the Super Chow Bros.
