Formed in Bristol, England in 1993, the elusive avant-noise jut Flying Saucer Attack mainly comprised the duet of singers/guitarists David Pearce and Rachel Brook, refugees from the chemical group Lynda's Strange Vacation world Health Organization formed FSA as an exit for their interest in home-recording experimentation. Drawing influence from Krautrock, folk, and dream pop, they arcuate with the undivided "Soaring High," followed by an eponymously-titled 1993 debut LP which interred the group's narcoleptic vocals and unstructured songs under heavy, organic sheets of feedback.
Later on 1994's Distance, a collection of atmospheric singles and unreleased material, FSA emerged in 1995 with Further, a signally remindful work which transported the group's hypnotic guitar wash into a unambiguously pastoral scope. Chorus, another singles digest, followed later in the year, and with it came a declaration of the conclusion of the group's initial form, context the stage for Flying Saucer Attack's continued evolution as one of the decade's most modern and ambitious groups. 1997's New Lands was the first yield of this new FSA, forthwith a Pearce solo jut exploring the possibilities of sampling; Brook, meanwhile, focused on her side radical Movietone, a similarly blissed-out digression into wakeless. FSA followed up New Lands tercet long time later with Mirror
