[Download] Volcano Choir: ‘Island, IS’

Without doubt my most eagerly anticipated release of 2009 is the album from Volcano Choir – an assembly of Wisconsinite royalty: Jon Mueller, Chris Rosenau, Jim Schoenecker, Daniel Spack, Thomas Wincek and most notably Mr Justin ‘Bon Iver’ Vernon.

The album, titled Unmap has actually been in existence in some way or form since before Bon Iver hit the mainstream with the modern day classic For Emma, Forever Ago yet their label Jagjaguwar how shrouded the release in secrecy to avoid it leaking before the 21st September release date.

Finally though, we have a glimpse as to what to expect from the record. ‘Island, IS’ is a stuttering gem of a track, Vernon’s unmistakable aching vocal cooing over the complex loops and rhythms. It does not dissapoint.
