Remote Islands Interview by The Johns Hopkins Newsletter

One of my favorite bands in the whole world, Remote Islands was recently interviewed about their upcoming album by the Johns Hopkins Newsletter.

For those of you who want to be as up to date as you can be, the band has a hi-tech album progress-tracker on their website. I've been told that the number you find there may even be moved up to the 90% range very soon.

In case you missed it, Pitchforkmedia.com posted something nice about the band's recent cover of the Neil Young classic "Philadelphia."

You can purchase the band's album from the Isota website or from iTunes.
