Long awaited debut album from Prince Edward Island
Prince Edward Island were formed in late 2005 after realising
that sharing each-others Chemikal Underground records was not
going to be enough. Hailing from the nation’s darkest fringes
in Fife and Northumberland they set about laying their dark,
often very personal lyrics over the lightest melodies they
could muster, writing about what they knew - of trawler-trash
town love affairs, of being trapped in failing relationships
and of youth squandered.
“The song you most can’t live without”
Vic Galloway BBC Radio 1
“You get the impression that John Peel would have loved this Band”
BBC Radio Bristol
"They sound like they play their instruments with boxing gloves on"
We Are Ok
“Any band that can combine Rolf Harris stylophones with Gretsch guitars and lyrics like ‘you look like I need a drink, a little something I can cling too’ deserves serious attention”
Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music
“almost superhumanly shite”
Underground Scene Forum
“PEI make the most agreeable pop noise”
The Fly
“...dreary, and to be avoided unless you really enjoy driving”
Rough Guide to Canada
