Space Island [Import]

• Track Listing

The fourth full-length album from NZ brother and sister Broods, Space Island, is an exploration of grief and all it's many dimensions: it's unpredictable nature and refusal to follow any linear path, it's incredible capacity to bring great clarity and transformation. In keeping with the New Zealand-bred duo's unfettered imagination-an element they've brought to multiple platinum- and gold-certified records so far- the album's 10 tracks exist in a surprisingly radiant sonic realm, it's aesthetic equally inspired by '60s sci-fi B-movies and the balmy exotica of composers like Les Baxter. As a result, Space Island introduces a dazzling new intensity into Broods' atmospheric indie-pop while providing a powerful conduit for catharsis.
