I think the Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? was absolutely brilliant. Fantastic pop music that doesn't adhere to the typical verse/chorus/verse structure. Each song keeps changing, moving from hook to hook. A really tremendous and inventive album.

Return To The Sea, under the Islands moniker, is nearly as strong and their recent Arm's Way is only a bit below that level, but a lot more emotionally resonant.

I absolutely love them, regardless of their name.
