It was in the year of ’92 that they were first sighted, high over the western skies of Bristol, UK. Flying Saucer Attack originally manifested in the form of 7" singles, shot through with noise sheets and touches of eastern-tuned psychedelics, hooded with shoegaze-inspired somnambulance.

Dubbed by some as “Rural Psychedelia”, the eponymous album exploded the sound of the singles into a full-length trip. This set the bar for FSA impossibly high, but in the following year, a collection of singles sides called Distance provided a companionable listen — and still without a personal appearance in support, the audience for Flying Saucer Attack continued to expand.

The waning years of the decadewould bring New Lands and Mirror...stay tuned.
