"Whats the Deal?
Frankly. I’m not too sure. And even if I was, I don’t know if I should tell you. Because Islet are a band that in all possible ways evade description. This is primarily because the instrumental post-rock wig-out/Steve Reich drum-duo breakdown/rhythmic shouty noisy…..ness of this band is so far stretched, pulled and refracted that it would be nigh on impossible to figuratively stuff it into any generically labelled jar. And secondly because, well, they don’t want me to try. This is a band whose recent rise to the public psyche has been catalysed by their efforts to stay out of the spotlight. In a complete rebellion against the glutinous glut of MySpace/ Facebook/Twitter toting, over-marketed kiddies, Islet took a step back and made the mature decision that the best thing to do in these situations is to simply keep schtum. And schtum they did. If you think I’m being obtuse, just try it yourself, type Islet into google and you’ll find nothing of the ordinary sort." Rockfeedback
