Niteflights are a band from London that attract and charm with the infectious sound of indie pop and ensnare with the twisting, sharp rhythms and arrangements of post-punk. The band draws their name from the Walker Brothers' great, dark beauty of a final album, 1978's Nite Flights. Although the band's music doesn't actually contain any of the dark undertones of their namesake, Niteflights certainly shares a bit of the urgency found in album tracks "Shutout" and "Fat Mama Kick." There's an interesting balance between the playful and the heartfelt in their music that gives a bit of depth without sacrificing a sense of glee. This is indie pop that's unwilling to sit still, buzzing with excitement and ready to ride the directional rollercoaster of post-punk.
Niteflights - "Coney Island 1912"
Niteflights - "It's Not A Problem"
For two songs that are supposedly demos, "Coney Island 1912" and "It's Not A Problem" only make you wonder how these could sound any tighter or any better. If these are demos, then I think it's safe to say we're in for a real treat when the final incarnations of these tracks are released. Cheers, Niteflights.
