FREDERICKSBURG, VA
BENEATH, SEPULCHER, & COLLECTIONS 1 AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE NOW.
PRAISE FOR BENEATH
"Urgent even at its sludgiest tempos, the Fredericksburg, Virginia band’s second album draws on a bleak palette to create illusions of infinite depth and vastness."
Pitchfork
"Infant Island’s version of screamo is raw and ambitious and hypnotic, and I really don’t think there’s anyone better in the genre right now."
Stereogum
"Beneath is a capital-A Album that ebbs and flows like one long song cycle. It’s the best thing Infant Island have released by a mile and it’s one of the most stunning albums to come out of the whole recent screamo revival yet." BrooklynVegan
"Screamo, post-rock, and a little black metal meld together for Virginia quartet Infant Island's signature immersive and melancholy sound."
Bandcamp Daily
PRAISE FOR INFANT ISLAND
"Teetering push-and-pull compositions...that blend shoe-gazing sounds to buff up hoarse screams."
Washington Post
"Fiercely powerful and raw, regularly building to towering heights of glorious noise."
Stereogum
"An impressive debut showing, the seven-song LP...belts out the aggression hard at times, but pads it with serene atmospheric vibes." Noisey
"Screamo with a sense of urgency that calls on big shoegazey guitar melodies to channel its chaos."
Bandcamp Daily
"An impressive and engrossing foundation of soaring rock melodies."
