The most trusted name in the skies

Fly Pan Am - Ceux Qui Inventent N'ont Jamais Vecu (2002)
















Ah, c'est ca, c'est un expérience extraordinaire.

Bonjour people people,

so, this is Fly Pan Am, a Canadian experimental, avant-garde, post-rock, rather untagable band which is definitely worth a listen. Their sound is groovy, it's cool it's energetic, confusing and it's more or less constantly repeating everything which it entails. It's pure joy.
The intriguing thing about this record is the way one song abruptly passes on to the next, from unbearably amazing industrial-like sound sceneries to easy passages back to repeating and hyptnotising sound creations. You will find something new with every listen, I promise.
The best place to listen to it may be a huge empty warehouse with some amazing sound system of course. The album is superb as a whole, personal favourites are track two, four and six.

They released their albums through the Montreal-based Constellation Records, producing and collaborating on works with the likes of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Shalabi Effect. (last.fm)
