Islet

Sometime last year I visited deepest darkest Derby to see Los Campesinos!. The first band on were a group called Islet and they blew everyone's minds. The Cardiff foursome produce a kind of experimental rock music that involves them switching instruments, wandering around and causing major foot movement. They came, they went, and all they left us with was a few sheets of paper and a random fan page. Indeed, they had no recorded material anywhere and hardly any info online.



Fast forward a year and now Islet have released 2 EPs, Wimmy and Celebrate This Place. In all honesty, their recorded work is not a patch on their ferocious live shows. A band that NEEDS to be seen in person.
