Spam Filter: Islands are a comin'

For once, Ticketmaster graced our inboxes with a worthwhile announcement: it appears perpetual EF favorites Islands will be returning to Webster Hall on Saturday, May 24th. Tickets are on sale TOMORROW at 5:00 pm - random time, yes? - and you can find them HERE.

If you're stressed because you already have plans that night, fear not. Given that it's a Saturday night at Webster Hall the show should wrap up while it's still light outside.

In other Islands news, their sophomore album Arm's Way is set to drop on Anti- Records on May 20th. If you happened to miss Pitchfork's interview with the artist-formerly-known-as-Nick Diamonds (it's Nick Thorburn now in case you forgot) this past week, definitely check it out.

After the jump, peruse Islands upcoming tour dates and listen to their excellent new song...
