With Night, Comes Danger


Good ol' In-Flight Safety are giving you their With Night, Comes Danger Tour EP. Free! It features a couple of their classics, some good covers and a new demo. Like these for example:

In-Flight Safety - Somebody's Watching You (mp3) (amazon) (iTunes)
In-Flight Safety - Karate Man (Super Friendz cover) (mp3)

Download the full EP here.

I also had the chance to catch part of their set at Yonge and Dundas Square when they performed for NXNE, so here's a little live and unreleased bootleg from me to you. Nice and fuzzy quality like an illegit mp3 should be. It hadn't a name when I recorded it, so I've appropriately dubbed it "Lightning Bolt", at least until someone comes along to correct me.

In-Flight Safety - Lightning Bolt (live and unreleased)
(mp3)

More rockin' than I've ever heard In-Flight Safety before. I can't wait for the finished track.

In-Flight Safety at Criminal Records


Yeah, I know it's short notice from me, but In-Flight Safety will be making a FREE, all-ages, acoustic appearance at Criminal Records at 2PM today. Yay! But it looks more and more like I won't be able to go.

If you're still interested (as you should be) but can't make it to the afternoon show, they'll be doing another one tonight at the Horeshoe Tavern.

Just to remind you of who these guys are:

In-Flight Safety - Amy Racina (mp3) (MapleMusic) (iTunes)

It's always comforting to hear an In-Flight Safety song, no matter what time it is, or where you are, or what their lyrics are telling you. They know how to soothe people, and that in itself is a talent worth exploring.


So now, three years after their Juno Award winning debut, The Coast is Clear, In-Flight Safety have come out from their base in Halifax to bring us We Are an Empire, My Dear. It was actually released just over two months ago. The band are slowly gaining back their momentum and their following.

So as their album suggests, our contemporary world is filled with the tensions of love, greed and wealth. Go relax for once. In-Flight Safety and We Are an Empire, My Dear will help.

My Heart Hurts


I was estatic to receive a copy of In-Flight Safety's new album, We Are An Empire, My Dear, in my inbox. I've always liked In-flight Safety. I remember the first time I've ever heard their music on a sad Friday night a few years back. Its a warm, sunny sound that feels like its enveloping you in blankets and warmth.

And listening to the new album in my car, my heart actually hurt upon the seventh track, "Amy Racina". But I mean, isn't that what music is supposed to do? To create or provoke emotion? To make us feel happy or sad or a million different things?
