Power Under Control finds Islander doubling down on their alt-rock, punk via hip-hop inspired sound that's modern than retro. Islander in 2016 is a new breed of monster, certain to leave every witness a believer. Founding member and vocalist Mikey Carvajal was joined by Korn/Love And Death wunderkind guitarist J.R. Bareis in 2015, leading the band on a powerful new path. The seeds of this relationship were planted during 2014's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Fest, when word of Islander's explosive performances quickly spread to the tour's headliners Avenged Sevenfold and Korn - who flocked to watch the band almost daily. Bareis, who was then guitar tech for Korn's Brian "Head" Welch, soon found himself in the role as Islander's new guitar player.back to top
