If you’re sick of the musical cliches, The Plane Sailors are the band for you. This Brisbane indie-rock act feel the same way, so you won’t find the same old lines in their latest track “Bell Curve.” At just a little over two minutes, it’s a great reminder that sometimes less is more.
“This is not your cliche story, I’m sick of happy endings, they feel so boring” singer Curtis Hooper declares in this super catchy single.
Curtis recorded the track in his bedroom before moving to complete it in bassist James Glenleft’s spare room. According to the press release, the recording process was “a labour of love (with sprinkles of frustration), that ultimately resulted in a track the band could be immensely proud of.”
“You’re likely gonna have to do a lot more for yourself in the studio than you think,” added guitarist Joseph Floyd. “Whether it’s adding in the extra layers, redoing your mate’s part for them that they hastily punched in on their lunch break, or spending time alone because the others forgot to show up to press the record button for you; it’s all worth it in the end.”
The Plane Sailors recently launched the single in their hometown. Hopefully it won’t be too long before they take their live show to the rest of the country.
