Kunek- Flight of the Flynns (2006) MP3 & FLAC


"Strangers on the airwaves control you from the sky, taken by the slipstream, they lead you to the fire."

While sounding something like an American Midwestern hybrid of Radiohead and early post-Barrett Pink Floyd, Kunek's debut, Flight of the Flynns, is a strangely beautiful concoction of organicity and abstraction. Full of warm string instruments and icy piano textures, the album consistently constructs a lushly ornate minor key spaciousness that touches on the more melodic aspects of Post-Rock; as such, it is no surprise to find that it was originally conceived as an instrumental album. Occasionally, Jesse Tabish's vocals are haunted by the ghost of Thom Yorke, but they tend to comfortably settle into wistful resignation rather than Yorke's trademark knowing detachment. This album fell far beneath the radar mid-decade, and perhaps in search of a better fate, the band has since changed its name to Other Lives.

  1. It’s odd coming across these guys on here, I didn’t think that anyone really knew about the stuff they did before Other Lives, plus they are kind of a local band for me. My ex-girlfriend went to school with these guys and used to try to get me to do posters for them.
