Australian group Phantom Island release their debut album 'Community' on 31 July through Igloo Records. The seven-track collection is described as a garage post-punk scrapbook, beginning with the forceful title song before moving through 'Chinese Restaurant', 'Rolls Around', 'Alien Song', 'Adam', 'It's You' and 'Wadjella Kid'.
The band approach community as something messy, economic, personal and politically charged rather than a cheerful photograph of everyone holding matching cups. 'Rolls Around' adds summertime blues complicated by six-percent inflation, while 'Wadjella Kid' closes the album with a pointed examination of entitlement. The record will appear on recycled blue vinyl. Read more garage post-punk news.
