About Aviator Lane
Aviator Lane are a three piece indie rock band from Adelaide, South Australia and have been a quietly consistent presence in Australian music for a while now. After releasing 2 EPs in consecutive years (2005/06), touring in Europe and supporting acts such as Low, Okkervil River, Jason Molina, Willard Grant Conspiracy, Holly Throsby, Sodastream et al, along with playing at the 2008 Adelaide Laneway Festival, Aviator Lane released their debut album, Common Distance, in June 2009. Here's what some people have had to say about it: “A quietly effective debut … The band skilfully mesh electronics, guitars and indie pop in a hushed, tasteful manner. *** ” Rave Magazine, June 2009. “‘Common Distance’, the debut album from locals Aviator Lane, is a dramatic, occasionally sombre, and mostly serious one. It’s also very good, combining a number of disparate genres and tying them together with a strong sense of lyricism and structure.” dB Magazine, June 2009. “Everything is as pretty as possible with Aviator Lane. Treated guitars glisten with hazy hues, drums and electronic percussion bubble like champagne, and bass lines tug it all along without ever getting in the way.” Mess + Noise, June 2009. “There's tightness and welterweight muscularity to their sound that seems to be the hallmark of many great three-pieces … 'Common Distance' regularly glistens with tender guitars and carefully stroked snares - it's often captivating stuff and you can almost see the Flinders Ranges glistening in the distance.” Scene Magazine, July 2009. Aviator Lane are currently writing and arranging the follow up to Common Distance and will start recording their new album in November 2009. They are headlining the Jade Monkey on the 23rd of October as part of the Coopers Alive 09 showcase, a festival of eight different shows held over 2 nights in Adelaide.
