Exit Motel are the songwriting partnership of Matt Clark and Rich Patmore. Their delicately severe sound arouses notions of Soundgarden meeting The Police, Faith No More crossed with Pink Floyd. At the start of 2006 they entered 4D Studios to begin work on their debut album Flights Of Gravity. Inspiring from start to finish the partnership of Rich Patmore and Matt Clark has finally been cemented on a record in a class of its own.
From the opener "A Light Half Mine" to the delicately severe "Them Many Wasps" and more nurtured tones of "Gravity Fields", this album transpires from the vocality of Pink Floyd to the grain of Seattle rock.
With breathtaking contributions from both Paul Ford and London's Myrrh-Cedez Gayle, each track takes a form always approving of the next. The duo's first single release, Hospital Man has already gathered the ears of those in the know and goes far beyond the boundaries of just a return to form.
This is a band that has no plans to be ignored. An industry onslaught planned for the first half of 2007, followed by a string of live shows beginning in March and enough obsession to see the world of Exit Motel get a lot weirder and a whole lot biggers
