MP3: Isolation Years - Albino child
"Albino child" is the second single from Isolation Years' most recent album "Sign, sign". It's also an easy pick as my favorite track. The far more upbeat "Landslide" made sense as the first single, but it's "Albino child"'s dark vibe and confusing religious imagery that put it over the top. In a sense, that's the classic Isolation Years formula. There's always been a deep foreboding feeling throughout much of their work, especially the debut "Inland traveller" which was ripe with apocalyptic imagery. The band's psyched-out folkrock sound compliments the words perfectly. It's been quite some time since I was immersed in theology studies, so I won't try to speculate as to what it all means, but the song - the song is excellent regardless of meaning.
