The Unicorns become Islands

After producing one of last year's/this year's (depending on which release you procured) finest records 'Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone', two-thirds of Canada's The Unicorns have formed a brand new project.

Called Islands and described as 'F-14 tomcat blah, blah', Nicholas Diamonds and J'aime Tambour produce something that sounds like a pop equivalent of shining a devil with a can of WD40. It's mad, fun, firey and interesting. We've also been lucky enough to find a couple of tracks for you to listen to, thanks to our friends at The Simple Mission which is a great little music blog. So check out:

'Flesh' and 'Abominable Snow'

DiScuss: What do you think of these tracks? Do you miss The Unicorns? Who is cutting your hair now that they're gone?

yay! i miss the unicorns. i saw my hairdresser twice in two days, both at completely different places, none of which was a hairdressing place. i didn't talk to her because i thought she might shout at me for ruining her lovely haircut.

the tracks are interesting and are growing on me (though it's fairly corns-ish fare) but i miss alden. no one rocked out while looking like a 14 year old boy like him..

his solo stuff is great though. death-folk!
