What you want from me? What you need from me? You’ll never get the best of me Do you really want a piece of me? I, I, I, I just can’t give it to ya A little hit of dopamine It’ll never be enough for me I’ll be anything you want me to be But I can’t give it up for free I, I, I, I just can’t give it to ya So sick and tired I’m paranoid and deranged I’m burning out So sick of waiting for ya This is my time This is my coming of age Over and out So sick of waiting for ya Don’t think you won’t do any harm Don’t think I don’t know who you are Don’t ever wanna be your friend No I never wanna see you again I, I, I, I just can’t give it to ya I’m coming up for air So sick and tired I’m paranoid and deranged I’m burning out So sick of waiting for ya This is my time This is my coming of age Over and out So sick of waiting for ya Don’t talk to me right now I’m burning the house down I’m lost in a freak out Right now I’m coming up for air So sick and tired I’m paranoid and deranged I’m burning out So sick of waiting for ya This is my time This is my coming of age Over and out

Lost in Tokyo 02:54

Look up to the stars and the constellations I wonder where you are in the dark tonight I left my heart at your destination Take me to the start where our worlds collide Tell me tell me lies just like you mean it She’s unbelievable but somehow I believe it I can’t get enough, I got a fever She gives me vertigo and dances on the ceiling Lost in Tokyo Wake up inside a dream Taking control of me Lost in Tokyo-o Stuck in a memory I never wanna leave Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo Look into my eyes at the fascination I’ve been hypnotised by the blinding lights Deep inside my mind there’s a desperation Staring at the scars that I can’t disguise Tell me tell me lies just like you mean it She’s unbelievable but somehow I believe it I can’t get enough, I got a fever She gives me vertigo and dances on the ceiling Lost in Tokyo Wake up inside a dream Taking control of me Lost in Tokyo-o Stuck in a memory I never wanna leave Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo I can’t get enough, I got a fever She gives me vertigo and dances on the ceiling Lost in Tokyo Wake up inside a dream Taking control of me Lost in Tokyo-o Stuck in a memory I never wanna leave Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo

I’m talking in my sleep Stuck inside a dream I need you to wake me up Get me out of here Shaking like a leaf Breaking at the seams I need you to wake me up Get me out of here Walking on a tightrope Running with my eyes closed Looking for a cheat code Wake me up Fear I get the fear Getting closer and closer and over and over Fear I get the fear Getting closer and closer Get me out of here Lying through my teeth Pressure won’t release I want you to pick me up Get me out of here Feel like someone else Crying out for help I want you to pick me up Get me out of here Walking on a tightrope Running with my eyes closed Looking for a cheat code Wake me up Fear I get the fear Getting closer and closer and over and over Fear I get the fear Getting closer and closer Get me out of here Get me out of here I’m talking in my sleep Stuck inside a dream I need you to wake me up Fear I get the fear Getting closer and closer and over and over Fear I get the fear Getting closer and closer Get me out of here Get me out of here

about

“Island” is an EP centred around escapism and defiance. Moving against the things that slow us down and chip away at us. Releasing ourselves from “the way you’re meant to do things” in 2024 and being free both in our minds and in our music. ‘Island’ represents a dreamlike state or place where you can go that none of these factors can get to you. You feel no fear. Negative or toxic influences are silenced. Your wildest dreams and aspirations become your reality. Waves of anxiety that would previously crush you cannot reach you. Ultimately it’s a place where you take control.

Musically we feel like we’ve done exactly that. Although we weren’t alive in the 80s, all four of us have a love for the sounds from that era and they somehow feel nostalgic to us. We wanted to inject some of those influences into a sound that otherwise felt forefront and futuristic. The mix of old and new is what excited us. It’s a mad process making sounds that you’ve not heard before because you have no reference point but the last thing we wanted to do was to sound like just another band. Producer Ross Hamilton has been an amazing collaborator with us on this. If you have a wild idea, he somehow knows exactly how to achieve the sound you have in your head, so you don’t spend days searching for “the right thing”. If it feels right, it’s right. Nothing has ever felt more musically right for us as a band. To us, the songs feel unique and exciting, yet nostalgic. We feel like the songs within ‘Island’ can be a sanctuary for people who want to let their minds fly unencumbered and free from the shackles of modern life.
