Island Is An Eerie Folk-Rock Mystery With Compelling Melody Lines." Mojo "Surreal Maritime Sagas. An Insistent Chugger That Ranks Alongside The Best From The Man From Mull Historical Society." The Times "MacIntyre Has Gone Back To His Roots With This Album. 'Cape Wrath' Is Cracking With Twists And Turns. Also Features A Lovely King Creosote Collaboration. Beautiful." 4/5 The Sunday Mail "‘Island’ Sees MacIntyre Take Influence From Traditional British Roots Music In A Largely Stripped-Down Effort. A Well-Paced And Lovingly-Crafted Album." 4/5 The Fly "Ned's Song Brother Is A Standout Moment. Delivered In The Intimate Country Folk Style. Reminiscent Of A Caledonian Will Oldham."
