Fly Pan Am
The Montreal-based quartet Fly Pan Am is the main project of Godspeed You Black Emperor's guitarist Roger Tellier-Craig. While both of these groups deal in complex, musique concrete-influenced instrumental pieces, Fly Pan Am pursues a more restrained, minimalist musical vision.

after a debut record in 1999 and follow-up 12"/cdep in 2000, FLY PAN AM sharpen their sonic and conceptual knives to shiny surgical points on this second full-length. having gradually moved from long, reverb-drenched repetition to concise, bone-dry repetition in their live shows over the past couple of years, these new songs are marked by a full embrace of stuttering, fucked-up, funk. the result is a tightly-wound record that frequently seems to pop its own springs. a strange and resistant strain of inst [ read more ]

fly pan am return with a 3-song e.p. of fractured, tape-infested motorik rock experiments : sédatif en fréquences et sillons (which roughly translates as "grooved frequency sedative"), an intransigent slab of self-referential auto-criticism. fly pan am stick to their agenda of acutely self-conscious musical manipulations, examining their own materials and assumptions to yield new compositions of uncompromising formalism. side 1 ('de cercle en cercle...') is a medley of sorts, consisting of phrases a [ read more ]

Sedatif en Freqencies et Sillons takes material from the band's previously released album and remixes and reworks it. Where the previous album had slowly building trancelike material, however, Sedatif... is a mixed affair.
