Our Take

STANDARDS' latest album, "Fruit Island," is a tantalizing blend of tropical beats and introspective lyrics that will have you booking a one-way ticket to paradise quicker than you can say "cocktail umbrella."

From the moment the first track kicks in, you'll be transported to a sun-soaked beach, sipping on a coconut and swaying to the infectious rhythms. The band's eclectic mix of influences shines through, with nods to reggae, calypso, and even a hint of disco thrown into the mix.

Lead singer Tommy Pineapple's velvety vocals are the perfect accompaniment to the laid-back vibe of the music, painting vivid pictures of lazy afternoons and fiery sunsets. It's the kind of album that makes you want to kick off your shoes and dance barefoot in the sand.

But don't be fooled by the album's breezy exterior - there's a depth to "Fruit Island" that belies its carefree facade. Tracks like "Coconut Dreams" and "Mango Madness" tackle weighty themes like love, loss, and the passage of time, all while keeping your hips shaking.

In a musical landscape dominated by cookie-cutter pop and formulaic beats, STANDARDS stand out as a refreshing burst of creativity and originality. So grab your flip-flops, slap on some sunscreen, and let "Fruit Island" whisk you away to a musical paradise unlike any other.
