Flying Saucer Attack - Instrumentals 2015 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Something thought lost forever re-enters your life. How do you respond? How do you even begin to negotiate the vortex of mixed emotions whipped up by such a reappearance? The world shifts sideways. Logic is confounded. The uncanny takes a hold. West Country feedback outfit Flying Saucer Attack are a case in point. In recent years it's become clear that the Bristol based group were prescient to a considerable degree. The amplified pastoralism of the group and it's various offshoots might have seemed out of step with the times during it's initial emergence at the height of Britpop, but the rural has since emerged as a rich source of inspiration for numerous artists in the fields of experimental rock and electronic music. Enter Instrumentals 2015. Comprised of 15 fresh DAVE PEARCE solo performances recorded in characteristically lo-fi manner on tape and CD-R, Instrumentals 2015 is an album that will appeal both to FSA diehards and those wholly unfamiliar with the outfit's recorded output. The 15 tracks present an impressionistic narrative which transports the listener through the excoriating dronescapes and rueful introspection of the album's early pieces to the more redemptive cadences of it's closing half. Given it's sense of momentum, maintained through Pearce's thoughtful sequencing, this is an album that should be experienced in it's entirety, the better to appreciate it's deliberate emotional arc.
