| Tonight We Fly - Sum EP |
Chaps. Chaps from Bath. That's
what Tonight We Fly. Chaps from Bath. Oh, and they make music. The music that
they make is on the intense side of the indie spectrum but with a sense of
energy that is quite infectious. This EP opens with 'Careworn' all full of
rattling, rumbling drums and an infectious melancholy bounce that puts me in
mind of Futureheads and Maximo Park. 'Highs' is pitched somewhere between a
country ballad and a sea shanty lament with some gently rolling guitar notes
and delicate percussion that builds subtly, almost the opposite of love at
first sight.
There is a ramshackle, high speed
jangle to 'Wallet' that gives me the
impression that their live shows must be a melee of arms, legs, wide eyes and
sweat. Buckets of sweat. Final track 'Allergy' has a gorgeous slapped bass line
and an up tempo feel that I have only recently experienced with the band Crowns
who are in my top 10 live bands of the last year. Tonight We Fly have a
particularly infectious sound and energy that is something to behold and I
would recommend that you get yourself down to a show to drink in some of that
energy. And sweat.
