With a distinct influence from Legendary Pink Dots,
New Order and later goth-industrial emotionalists,
Plane dishes out tracks of ominous
melancholy on their sophomore drop, I See
Love In The Future.
Guitars strum serenely on “Blood On The
Waves,” and a drum machine paces gently.
Gradually the track builds into a chugging train
of intention, with staccato keys and cresting,
sweeping electronic eeriness. On “Under
One Moon,” Plane reaches is cruising altitude
much more quickly, keeping with metronomic digital
rhythm section.
For a group composed of five members, the album
is kept very simple, but undeniably consistent
musically, and consistently interesting as a whole.
Quirky with vocal samples and whacky instrumentation
(moog, farfisa…) I See Love In The Future
shows definite promise, and we see brightness
in Plane’s broody pop future.
