Listen to This: Islands - "Hallways"

For his forth album under the Islands moniker, Nicholas Thorburn seems to progress further down the path started in the last album, Vapours.  While I'm still digesting his latest, A Sleep & A Forgetting, "Hallways" is a definite highlight of the album.  Where most of the album is Thorburn channeling lost love and charming self-conscious MOR rock, "Hallways" has a bit of pep in its step thanks to the hammering piano. 

A Sleep & A Forgetting is out in stores now.
