About The Age of Anxiety
The Age of Anxiety is the 4 song, debut EP from Seattle band Virgin Islands. Recorded with Johnny Sangster at Avast Studios over one weekend in July, this 4 song debut fires out the the gate with the lead single “The Age of Anxiety” and clips along at a steady pace all the way through. Virgin Islands debut should find a home with fans of Mission of Burma, Les Savy Fav, Constantines, Hot Snakes, etc. The vinyl version is an incredible sounding 12″, 45rpm pressing limited to 300 copies.
“Mike Jaworski, formerly of power punk group The Cops, is back and his new band sounds louder and more energetic than ever. Virgin Islands is all bombast and snarl and fierce guitar on their debut EP, which was put out by Jaworski’s Seattle indie label Mt. Fuji. Title track “The Age of Anxiety” evokes all of the jittery, jumpy angst that you might expect, and it never sounded so cathartic.” – Amelia Raitt from emusic.com
