The concept of the Dark Island is metaphorical: When you’re at the end of
your life, taking stock of it, what will you think about? No matter what you
land on, good or bad, that island is yours - the dark surely looms, but it also
covers all you’ve ever experienced.
For the folk-rock quartet Villages, the concept is also literal: Hailing from
Cape Breton Island - a lush landscape of great complicated beauty, its rocky
coast covered in sea salt and leaning defiantly into harsh winds.
On Dark Island, Villages marries metaphor to roots on 11
tracks that offer an experience meant to echo a visit to Cape Breton itself:
Otherworldly, euphoric, sobering, celebratory,
and reverent.
