Artificial Flight
Modest War Factor EP [self-released]
A five track EP from this up-and-coming Dundalk five-piece, Modest War Factor kicks off with the heavy and brooding atmosphere of the opening track "Transit Of Venus", before "Apophenia" impresses with its precisely managed build-up. "Bright White Light" uses the slow-build technique to even greater effect, ending in stirring string-laden flourishes. Things are brought to a close with the elegant simplicity of the stand-alone piano piece "Nocturnal Clavicist". The mood throughout is serious and focused and the songs reward patience and reflection rather than being instant attention-grabbers, but overall Artificial Flight make intelligent and compelling music and are well worth checking out. - Hotpress - Stephen Errity

Bio
An exceptional entity was born in 2007 following the fertilisation of a spark of creativity between a precocious drummer (Gary Morgan) and a proficient guitar player (Sean Branton). The resulting progeny later acquired both the name "Artificial Flight" and the vocal finesse of one Gary J Conlon. The trio became united under this progeny and immediately began writing and rehearsing, amplifying the potential of "Artificial Flight" in a controlled, contemplative manner. The recruitment of Jennifer Finnegan and David McEneaney completed the line-up, contributing opulent piano and steadfast bass guitar respectively. With an expansive scope of sound and the world in a compact oyster shell, "Artificial Flight" is poised and ready to intercept. The bandwagon beckons.
