“I know bands say this sometimes, but our upcoming album is hands down our heaviest yet. We felt the freedom to do what we wanted to do, now that we are independent. We were tired of being told not to scream too much or to turn the guitars down. We just did the opposite of that now that we can. This is our best record, and I can’t wait for everyone to hear it.” – Mikey Carvajal (Vocals)

 

Over the last decade, the band has gone from a regional standout in South Carolina, a groove heavy amalgam of aggressive rock rooted in punk rock ethos – to the one of the most promising prospects in the space. Cosigned by the likes of Korn and Papa Roach, Islander’s initial trajectory positioned the band to be among the leaders of rock music’s emerging class – convincing fans one city at a time.

 

From Billboard charting songs, an Album Of The Year Award, video game soundtracks, to touring with the likes of Korn, Papa Roach, P.O.D., Corey Taylor, Seether, I Prevail, Nothingmore, Babymetal, and many others, Islander still believes in the DIY passion that started their trajectory into mainstream rotation. Their message is to love one another. It’s that simple.
