Islands
Held together, only by accident
Water cuts, around the sun
We are sunset
Into me
Sinking in

While you're living out in your chemistry
Losing all your thoughts and your memories
Take another hour, let the weather pass
It's changing like the tide, like it always has
Rip currents surround me
To the rhythm of our melody
It's carving out our ship
As at the waves are coming in

Silence
Don't hide
Closes around us
A steady hand to calm the sand
And divide us
Birds song
Fading on

While you're living out in your chemistry
Losing all your thoughts and your memories
Take another hour, let the weather pass
It's changing like the tide, like it always has
Rip currents surround me
To the rhythm of our melody
It's carving out our ship
As at the waves are coming in

Come
The daylight in the room
And the sun gets in your eyes
The sun gets in your eyes
Come
The daylight in the room
And the sun gets in your eyes
The sun gets in your eyes

Another brilliant RP find. Thanks for exposing me to Zola Blood - this album has become a favourite!

This track has a weird effect just after the 'raindrops' where some super-deep bass causes a dopler-induced warble in the guys voice.

Fantastic though

the album is fine - and terrific cover art

Yeah the super low freq synth is a good speaker or headphone test. It's a cool effect.
Excellent!! I never heard of them before,  Thanx RP!
Really enjoying this group!
I was wearing headphones at the office and when this song's bass kicked in, I thought my head would implode.

I'm very concerned about the person on the album cover... Think maybe they should see a doctor..?

They're fine. "Hey doc, don't bother. These plants are helping me get my mind right. It's all good."

Zola Blood sounds a lot like Local Natives!
Some Tom York-neurons start lighting up in my brain.
The more i hear from this band the more i'm liking them.
Such a beautiful song :)
Accomplished. Melodic. Atmospheric and sophisticated. Damn this is goooooood!!!
Instant 7. May go higher. I'll keep you updated.
This guy's voice feels like his tongue is in my ear.

Very listenable album, to my ears.  7 out of the box, maybe a climber.
First time I heard this, nice!  We'll start with a 7 and see.
