About this time last year, Islands’ Nick Thorburn promised via a Progress Report to do a free solo album called I Am An Attic as a gift for fans. It was supposed to be part of a New Year’s Resolution, and, well, you know how those go. A year later, Thorburn seems to have some doubts, wondering over Twitter if his album is “total trash or worth releasing.” This little taste from the possibly-maybe new album points to the latter. The languorous transition from verse to chorus is especially sweet and summery.

Thorburn had sent in an MP3 with his Progress Report as well:

I Am An Attic will be out sometime, probably. Ten more posts like this and it is out.
