Infant Island Announce Album ‘Obsidian Wreath’, Share New Song "Another Cycle"

Virginia’s Infant Island has just announced the upcoming release of their album Obsidian Wreath, dropping on January 12, 2024, via Secret Voice.

The album invites listeners to delve into a world of emotional turmoil and mourning. Addressing the disheartening reality of a decaying world plagued by environmental crises, capitalist exploitation, pandemic-induced apathy, and numerous ongoing crises, the album poses the haunting question: how do we persevere in the face of relentless challenges? Through fervent and intense musical expressions, Infant Island navigates the complexities of this query, juxtaposing light and darkness as interconnected states of existence rather than opposing forces.

The album's thematic exploration is underlined by a resilient optimism that emerges from a backdrop of profound pessimism, reflecting the band's journey through the tribulations of the pandemic. Obsidian Wreath, conceived in 2020 and due to release in 2024, symbolizes the determination required to endure a global event that threatened both the music industry and its people at every level.
