Oslo’s FLIGHT originally started out as a trio in 2012 with
Chistoffer Bråthen on guitar and vocals, Jonas Bye on bass and
Herman Holen on drums. In 2013, the line-up was completed by
Kristian Ingvaldsen on second guitar. Following a compilation
appearance on »Well 'Eavy Vol. 1«, the band’s self-titled debut
album was released by Bad Omen Records in 2015 and was
premiered at London’s “Live Evil” festival.
FLIGHT’s overall sound is rooted in classic late 1970s heavy rock,
with inspirations drawn from Judas Priest especially, but also
from bands such as Di'Anno-era Iron Maiden, Winterhawk, Saxon and other British acts such as Camel and Pink Floyd.
