Sinaloa - Oceans Of Islands - Gatefold LP Out Now !!!Often compared to the distant early nineties scene of Vermin Scum, Dischord, and Gravity Records, Sinaloa brings the fire of that era's DIY punk and combines it with a grown-up sensibility and a lot of life experience. This is music as lifestyle, and lifestyle as music: deep personal history meets a life in independent music, and the results are a rare breed of idealism and practicality
Their newest, Oceans of Islands, picks up where their last two left off: emotive, driving, heartfelt anthems full of dueling vocals, meandering melodies, and slow-burning crescendos. Recorded at Providence, RI's Machines with Magnets (Battles, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah), and featuring the trumpet stylings of Forbes Graham (Erase Errata, the One AM Radio) on two songs, Oceans of Islands is perhaps the best yet showcase for Sinaloa's idiosyncratic drums, guitars, and no bass setup.
As always, all three members do vocals—"Sinaloa is a state: Everybody sings," goes the band's motto. Fittingly, the first words on Oceans of Islands are "There's a story in each room": a perfect summary of the band's obsessively attentive and compassionate lyrical outlook. After so many years together, the trio is tighter than ever, and Oceans of Islands is their loudest, most joyful record to date.
