In a world where people often value speed of delivery over
quality of product, itÆs not surprising that a lot of
todayÆs pop music is built for quick consumption, spat out
at the masses and quickly forgotten. For the starved souls
that still crave a tastefully crafted album, the options are
few and far between.
Meet In-Flight Safety.
The Halifax-based quartetÆs first full-length album The
Coast Is Clear exceeds all expectations. The disc is a
superb cinematic pop experiment that tugs at your
heartstrings upon first listen.
Starting out in Vancouver, the band began work on five
tracks with producer Warne Livesey (Midnight Oil, 54-40),
who took the band under his British wing for a month-long
recording adventure. On their return to Halifax the band
enlisted Laurence Currie (Sloan, Ghandharvas) to help bring
the record towards the finish line. But, when it came time
to sculpt the album into a satisfying wall of sound,
In-Flight Safety opted for the hands on approach.
Surprisingly, about half of The Coast Is Clear was recorded
in a small home studio. ôWe put great care into each and
every note on this album,ö says vocalist/guitarist John
Mullane, ôThis lends the music a warmth and intimacy that
you canÆt achieve while on the clock at a big budget
studio.ö
ôSince time wasnÆt a constraint during the recording
process, each of us got our own ideas into every song but,
knowing when to let go became the bane of our existence.
ItÆs a breath of fresh air to finally be able to share it
with the world.
The hard work is apparent from the first note. Drummer Glen
NicholsonÆs forceful, steady pulse builds a sturdy
foundation. Bassist Brad Goodsell supports the low end with
thoughtful minimalism. Daniel LedwellÆs explorative piano
passages tickle the ear, while John Mullane tops the
proceedings with honey-like guitars and his richly textured
voice. Add some sonic surprises to the mix û glockenspiels,
grand pianos, fifteen-piece choirs, and sounds that they
donÆt even know the name of û and you have a disc that
builds on the In-Flight SafetyÆs signature sound.
