Just as all good things must come to an end
The sky begins to rain bombs of sadness and decay whenever my world shows signs of being bright
Yet its in my DNA rest the burden on the lives of those who are anything but deserving
And with no god above I have no one to blame but myself
So now I shoulder the weight of your demons as penance
So now i shoulder the weight of your demons as penance
Now I stand in the reflection of the brass that lines the box in which you lay.
A vessel too beautiful for this earth.
Every color in my spectrum has dulled to grey.
It dulls to grey
Here's my final promise to you
The world will not forget your name
And until we meet again
I live for you
You know that point where you have consumed perhaps just a little too much of your chosen intoxicate. That's this album.
Fucking heavy!!! Obstacle of Affliction
The post-hardcore band’s latest is a reflection on time, memory, death, and grief—and is their dreamiest material to date. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 22, 2019
Bracing post-hardcore meets festival-ready rock on the Tokyo band's sharp new EP, mixed and mastered by Will Yip (Turnstile, Title Fight). Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 8, 2024
A post-hardcore megalith from the UK: churning guitars, spacey arrangements, and explosive vocals both screamed and sung. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2019
There is something purely authentic and honest about Infant Island's music. These songs are substantial in their impact that go deep under the surface. The sound mix is everywhere (track 3 on headphones?!?!) with some of the slower nuanced moments giving needed space for maximum effect when the violent intensity hits. But on career highlight "Awoken," they leave nothing behind. A must hear song from an increasingly important band. bcb723
